groundwork for more talks to lead to a breakthrough. so, this is just one part of a much larger process, and as you know, they come as the death toll approaches 30,000 people in gaza. more than 100 killed just overnight, and a humanitarian crisis unfolds there. we have seen images of desperate families rushing aid trucks entering the area, and efforts to feed displaced palestinians have been ongoing with aid groups urging israel to allow more aid trucks into gaza and warning of the potential for widespread famine, and there is also concern about israel's looming military operation in the southern city of rafah and what that could mean for the million palestinians who have taken refuge from the fighting there. aid groups are saying they have nowhere else to go and israel is warning they will go into rafah if hamas doesn't release the hostages by ramadan which starts in march. guys. >> whit: thank you so much. coming up here in our "gma morning menu," we'll have the latest on a first of its kind study looking at the effectiveness of heart disease

black and brown americans within science that has led, unfortunately, and we know these cases to be true, the tuskegee experiment which lasted up to 40 years and look at other examples in history where black and brown americans were experimented on without fully understanding the risks and that leads to mistrust but instead of addressing that mistrust much of science decided instead to withdraw black and brown americans as well as women from these scientific studies. and if you can imagine that leads to a difficult decision when, as a physician, you're trying to make evidence-based decisions for patients to help improve their outcomes and you have limited to no data. so today this is an incredible advancement because this investment is helping to address those inequities so we can gather and obtain reasons why that mistrust exists and hopefully improve outcomes. >> gio: we have a story to show you on why this is so important. take a look at this. >> chest pain will start happening and will wake me up in the middle of the night. >> gio: the chest pain started for 30-year-old jaleesa three

years ago. >> it felt like i was having a heart attack. >> gio: eventually doctors diagnosed her with severe coronary artery disease, a buildup of plaque in her arteries that can lead to a heart attack, the most common type of heart disease, the leading cause of death in most racial and ethnic groups in the united states. however, the research done on how to treat c.a.d. successfully has traditionally only been studied in white men. >> when we're performing the surgery we ourselves notice in women that the vessels are smaller and they can be more difficult to handle and we don't yet know if that makes a difference in terms of their outcomes. >> gio: but now, with a $30 million award, weill cornell medicine will launch recharge looking at women and minority populations with heart disease to determine which procedure stenting or bypass will best improve survival rates and quality of life. >> if you had a white man and have coronary artery disease your treatment will be based on very strong data, and if you are

a woman, or if you are a nonwhite patient, well, that's not the case. >> gio: after making what can, at best, be called an educated guess to undergo bypass surgery instead of receiving a stent -- >> how are you? >> i'm okay. >> gio: -- today jaleesa is feeling great. >> research is trying to save my life. i hope whoever hears this will want to be a part of the research that's going on here at cornell. it will make a big difference. >> gio: so looks like she made the right guess but it shouldn't be a guess. what are the potential benefits for patients? >> the potential is to understand again what is the best outcome? what is the best treatment? for people like jaleesa as you stated there are two treatments for blocked arteries, one, a cabbage or coronary artery bypass, a surgery or pci or percutaneous coronary stent and both are options for patients but, again, the evidence that should be inclusive of black and brown people doesn't exist.

the point of the study, find out which answers would be best for a patient, again, to improve outcomes and survival and to reduce complications. >> gio: all right, thank you so much. dr. darien sutton, as always, such an important topic. we appreciate it. whit. >> whit: turning to president biden's plan to forgive student loans with the administration now canceling $1.2 billion in debt for almost 153,000 borrowers. and joining us now is u.s. secretary of education, dr. miguel cardona. dr. cardona, good morning. always great to have you. so, first, this is part of the administration's save repayment plan. tell us who qualifies for this and who doesn't and when it goes into effect. >> sure, thank you, first of all, thank you for having me. this is part of a bigger plan to make higher education more affordable and more accessible. as you mentioned, 153,000 people received notification over $1.2 billion in debt relief will be provided. these are people that took out

loans of $12,000 or less, smaller loans. we know that these folks are more likely to go into default, so that's the group we targeted with this debt relief announcement this week. >> whit: for those who don't qualify this round, will there be more opportunities for debt forgiveness in the future? >> absolutely. you know, we've totaled over $139 billion in debt relief for close to -- about 3.9 million americans, so there will be more. and it's important to note we have other programs like public service loan forgiveness for public servants who have dedicated their careers to helping the community, there's a debt forgiveness program for those folks, as well. studentaid.gov is where people could go. the save plan that we're announcing this week is the most affordable income-driven repayment plan and make sure they can access higher education and not have to pay for the rest of their lives to do it. >> whit: as you know, there has been criticism here. this doesn't account for people who already paid their loans or

made personal sacrifice, maybe chose a college that was a bit more affordable. what's your response to those folks who may see this as an unfair giveaway? >> well, it's certainly not an unfair giveaway. it's an opportunity to address an issue that has gone on for too long in this country. we have over 1 million borrowers a year going into default. that's a problem for the local economy and our country. on the flip side, people that graduate college earn, over the course of their work career, over a million dollars more than people who don't. that goes into the economy, so we're fixing a broken system. we recognize that the people in it now are the ones that are going into default. we have to fix this but also, whit, we'll fix the system so we're not in this position five years from now. we're increasing college accountability. we're making loan repayment more manageable and debt relief is only a part of it. >> whit: secretary cardona, thank you so much for your time this morning. we do appreciate it.
