COVID Response

COVID-19 is a respiratory illness that can spread from person to person. The Heart and Stroke Foundation is recommending caution and preparation for those with heart disease and stroke. It appears senior citizens with cardiovascular disease are more likely to become infected and have more severe symptoms based on current research.
With the current resurgence of COVID-19 in India, we will continue to provide resources for patients and healthcare professionals to assist in patient care.
