Heart and blood vessel disease is our nation’s number one killer. About half of the deaths from heart and blood vessel disease are from coronary heart disease, which includes heart attack. According to the American Heart Association, about 325,000 people a year die of coronary attack before they get to a hospital or emergency room. West Virginia ranks fourth among all states in the nation for heart disease death rates.
Please join us for this very important event.
