Dear friends,
We, the South Asians, a proud community of highly educated people, are well aware of the existence of premature coronary artery disease
in our community. Each of us has a sad story to tell about the sudden death of a loved one from a heart attack
-the first and the last one !
This is the disease which comes in without knocking on the door.
South Asians have about double the risk of coronary artery disease compared to Europeans and other ethnic groups.
As a community, we must take action against this present and real danger, against this silent killer !
