Theme
The theme for World Heart Day this year is ‘Use Heart To Connect’. The main objective of this theme is to highlight the power of digital health to improve awareness, management and prevention of CVD globally.
As per World Heart Federation, the ‘Use Heart To Connect’ is all about using one’s knowledge, influence and compassion to make sure that one’s loved ones have the best chance to live heart-healthy lives. Moreover, the day is also about making sure we fuel and nurture them as best as we can.
Cardiovascular disease (CVD) remains the world’s number one killer, resulting in 18.6 million deaths a year. It has many causes: from smoking, diabetes, high blood pressure and obesity, to air pollution, and less common conditions such as Chagas disease and cardiac amyloidosis.
For the 520 million people living with CVD, COVID-19 has been heartbreaking. They have been more at risk of developing severe forms of the virus. And many have been afraid to attend routine and emergency appointments, and have become isolated from friends and family.
