Hypertension, or high blood pressure, kills more people than every infectious disease combined. It doesn’t have to. Today on #WorldHypertensionDay, Resolve to Save Lives and our partners are launching #ProtectOneBillionHearts — a global call to action to more than double the number of people with controlled blood pressure worldwide. If we act now, we can: 🔹 Save tens of millions of lives 🔹 Prevent at least 150 million heart attacks and strokes. 🔹 Deliver $18 in return for every $1 invested. Hypertension control is lifesaving, achievable, affordable — and urgent. Read it. Share it. Sign on. Lives depend on it. https://onebillionhearts.resolvetosavelives.org/ (fb)
