Yearender 2023: Several Indian celebrities, including Shreyas Talpade and Sushmita Sen, suffered from sudden cardiac arrests. Not everyone, though, was fortunate enough to make it through it. For those who are unaware, Indians are at a higher risk of developing coronary artery disease because our arteries are slightly smaller. Moreover, Indians have additional risk factors like poor eating habits, smoking, fast and canned foods, tobacco use, high stress, excessive alcohol consumption, and a lack of exercise. On a positive note, Mr. LM Singh, Managing Director India and Global Head, Partnerships, and Innovative Finance at Vital Strategies India said, "In 2023, One Sustainable Health and building resilient emergency preparedness took center stage. The world also acknowledged the growing importance and interlinkages between environmental pollution, climate change, and health. In this journey towards a healthier, more resilient world, heightened awareness at the community level, evidence-based and data driven decision-making for public health planning and policy development, combined with innovative financing mechanisms, can accelerate the achievement of the 2030 Sustainable Development Goals."
