The AHA turns 100
For 100 years, the American Heart Association, along with our volunteers, supporters and collaborating organizations, has worked to build longer, healthier lives. Here is a look at major feats over our first century.
当十大彩票正规平台于1924年6月10日成立时,心脏病被认为是死刑. 他们被告知,对许多人来说,最好的选择是卧床休息. There was no treatment, no hope. But the AHA’s founders didn’t believe that. 他们觉得只要我们了解心脏病,治疗方法就会随之而来. And were they ever right. 快进到今天,不仅有治疗方法, 但是已经被证实的降低心脏病和中风风险的方法. 通过科学研究和数百万志愿者和支持者的力量, 我们对导致这些疾病的许多因素有了更深入的了解:从高血压等传统医学问题到社会问题, structural racism and discrimination.
