MONTEREY, Calif., Aug. 4, 2026 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — Monterey Car Week & Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance, the world-renowned celebration of automotive excellence set against California’s Central Coast, returns August 7–16, 2026, with more than 35 events including both new celebrations and returning favorites across Monterey County, building toward the 75th Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance on August 16. The 10-day Car Week celebration draws more than 100,000 visitors countywide each year, with estimated visitor spending exceeding $130 million supporting local hotels and hospitality businesses, employment and more than 100 local charities that depend on millions of dollars generated from these events.

Last year also saw the one-of-one 2025 Ferrari Daytona SP3 ‘Tailor Made’ sell for $26 million at RM Sotheby’s, benefiting the Ferrari Foundation.

Behind Every Breath Is a Story: World NTM Day 2026 Spotlights the Patients Behind an Underrecognized Lung Disease

PR Newswire

MIAMI, Aug. 4, 2026

NTM Info & Research marks the fourth annual World NTM Day by pairing data with patient stories to raise awareness, encourage earlier conversations with healthcare providers, and connect patients and caregivers to trusted resources

MIAMI, Aug. 4, 2026 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — This World NTM Day, NTM Info & Research is calling attention to the people behind a growing and underrecognized lung disease.

Experience the full interactive Multichannel News Release here: https://www.multivu.com/ntm-info-and-research/9410751-en-world-ntm-day-2026-spotlights-lung-disease

Observed annually on August 4, World NTM Day raises awareness about nontuberculous mycobacterial (NTM) lung disease, a serious condition caused by bacteria found naturally in the environment, including soil and water. Under the 2026 campaign theme, “Behind Every Breath Is a Story,” NTMir is elevating patient voices, caregiver experiences, expert insight and data to help more people understand the signs, risk factors and daily impact of NTM lung disease.

NTM lung disease is different from tuberculosis and is generally not considered contagious from person to person. The bacteria are common in the environment, but most people who are exposed do not become ill. Risk is higher among people with underlying lung conditions such as bronchiectasis, COPD, cystic fibrosis or emphysema; people with weakened immune systems; and older adults, particularly women.

“The numbers tell us that NTM lung disease deserves greater awareness, but patient stories tell us why that awareness matters,” said Amy Leitman, JD, President of NTM Info & Research. “Behind every breath is a person trying to get answers, manage symptoms, understand treatment options and live fully while navigating a disease many people have never heard of. World NTM Day is about making sure those stories are heard and that patients and caregivers know they are not alone.”

WorldNTMDay.org cites an estimated 220,000 NTM cases in the United States in 2020 and an 8.2 percent annual increase in the number of cases. The site also notes that Mycobacterium avium complex (MAC), the most common type, accounts for 80 percent of NTM lung disease cases in the United States.

These figures help define the scale of the disease, but they cannot capture the long road to diagnosis, the uncertainty of recurring symptoms or the daily work of managing treatment and care.

For many patients, the road to diagnosis can be long and frustrating. Symptoms such as chronic cough, increased sputum, fatigue, shortness of breath, unexplained weight loss, fever and night sweats can resemble other respiratory conditions, including asthma, chronic bronchitis or COPD, or be mistaken for recurring infections. As a result, patients may spend months or years seeking answers before learning they have NTM lung disease.

“Patients often tell us they knew something was wrong, but did not know what to ask,” Leitman said. “Awareness can help change that. It can help patients recognize patterns, have informed conversations with their healthcare providers, seek credible information and connect with a community that understands what they are experiencing.”

The 2026 World NTM Day campaign builds on the momentum of NTMir’s recent Patient Conference, where patients, caregivers, clinicians and advocates came together around education, empowerment and community. A key message from the conference continues into World NTM Day: patients want to take an active role in their care, but they need trusted information, support and stronger public understanding of NTM.

The campaign also continues NTMir’s commitment to reaching English- and Spanish-speaking communities with accessible information. Spanish-language resources and media outreach help ensure that more patients, caregivers and families can learn about NTM and find support in the language they trust.

“Awareness has to meet people where they are,” said Helga Rosado, Director of Operations at NTM Info & Research. “When families have information in their language, they are better equipped to ask questions, understand symptoms and find support.”

NTMir encourages people living with a persistent cough, shortness of breath, fatigue, recurring respiratory infections or an underlying lung condition to speak with a healthcare provider about their symptoms and what testing or evaluation may be appropriate. Patients and caregivers already navigating NTM can find educational materials, provider referrals, support groups and community resources through NTMir.

This World NTM Day, NTMir is asking the public, media, healthcare professionals and partner organizations to help amplify one message: behind every breath is a story, and every story deserves to be heard.

NTM Info & Research is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization formed on behalf of patients with nontuberculous mycobacterial disease.

Any customer who places a qualifying online order between Aug. 3-30 is eligible for a $5 off coupon, to be used the following week on a digital order. Domino’s Rewards members will receive their coupon under “My Deals,” while all other customers will receive theirs via email.</p> <p>“We streamlined our website and app to make them bolder, brighter, more modern, and engaging for customers, but we want to hear from them,” said Mark Messing, Domino’s vice president of global digital marketing. “At the end of every online order, customers will have the chance to provide feedback on their ordering experience. While it’s not required to receive the coupon, we’d still love to hear what worked for them and what we could improve because we know customer feedback is what matters most. Earning a discount on pizza for sharing your opinion may be the easiest side gig ever.”</p> <p>To place an order and be eligible to receive the $5 bounce back, order via <a href="https://edge.prnewswire.com/c/link/?t=0&l=en&o=4740931-1&h=3571257827&u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.dominos.com%2F&a=dominos.com" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">dominos.com</a> or Domino’s mobile app.</p> <p><b>About Domino’s Pizza</b><b><sup>®<br /></sup></b>Founded in 1960, Domino’s Pizza is the largest pizza company in the world, with a significant business in both delivery and carryout.
