Appeal to support a Cardiovascular Health Plan for all
As part of the EACH campaign, the ESC Advocacy Committee, which includes ACNAP representation, has been actively seeking to have EU Political Groups commit to action on cardiovascular health as part of their campaign promises for the 2024 elections. The European People's Party Group (EPP Group), the largest political group in the European Parliament, in an exclusive interview with ESC President Prof. Franz Weidinger, recently made such a commitment.
We need to demonstrate to policymakers that on-the-record commitment to supporting plans that will materially benefit our community and patients are positively received. To that end we ask any colleagues that have accounts on the social media platforms below to voice their support for this initiative.
Every like, comment and repost helps to show policymakers that cardiovascular health is not just a topic of vital importance to all our countries, but also a topic that can be politically popular. Every positive comment by you as respected professionals in the field of cardiovascular health will encourage them to take more ambitious action.
While it may seem a small step, we urge you to help spread the word that every country needs a strategy to combat the world's leading cause of death!
