The report that more than 235,000 people die every year from cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) is alarming, highlighting a strained health sector and citizens’ low awareness of the link between individual lifestyles and increased deaths from CVDs. Together, the toll is an embarrassment to Nigeria, a country well-endowed with human and material resources yet unable to summon the right attitude to solve problems, including avoidable deaths.
Cardiovascular diseases are a group of medical disorders that affect the heart and blood vessels, often leading to heart attacks, strokes and other ailments. They are the leading cause of death in many countries. The primary drivers are hypertension (high blood pressure), poor diets, careless lifestyles, physical inactivity, alcohol use, obesity, among others. The fatality rate is higher in countries with low health budgets, reflected in poor healthcare services, a lack of specialist cardiovascular care, high costs and the general absence of a quality healthcare system.
