Up to 80 % of cardiovascular-induced deaths are preventable. Accounting for the major burden of total deaths worldwide, heart diseases definitely deserve our attention. The heART 2022 fights against cardiovascular diseases by building a platform for experts to learn, discuss, and grow together. Moreover, it also functions by creating space for dialogue and communication between experts and the people.
In contrast to religion, science is qualified by its accessibility to everyone. Paving the fundament of communication and health literacy is an important responsibility of health care professionals and our society.
Pandemic Lessons
Drawing necessary consequences from the pandemic, too many unanswered questions evoke the suggestions of an elitist and inaccessible scientific world. This resembles a scene from a kafkaesque tragedy. Men are cut off from their deeply entrenched need for understanding their environment, leaving behind a gashing wound within society. Discussion followed by clear answers should ease the pain.
In the HeART’s way, art is used as a catalyst for public awareness about cardiovascular disease and prevention. Walking HeARTs way, doctors, as well as the public, will see that every one of us is essential to building and strengthening a healthy, thriving, and prospering society.
