Cardiologists say that the rate of heart attack in Pakistan has increased by 10% in the last 7 years.

Prof. Nawaz Lashari, Prof. Muhammad Ishaq, Prof. Javed Akbar Sial and others held a press conference regarding heart diseases.

Experts said in the press conference that the death rate due to heart diseases in Pakistan was 19 percent in 2016, but currently the death rate due to heart diseases is more than 29 percent.

According to experts, people in the age group of 20 to 30 years are getting heart attacks due to the high rate of smoking in Pakistan.

Experts said that nearly 40 million people in Pakistan are suffering from high blood pressure and diabetes.

According to experts, not exercising and staying away from physical exertion is also a major cause of heart attack.

Experts also say that heart attacks are happening 11 years earlier in Pakistan than in Western countries.
