Every day, around 200 women in France die from a cardiovascular disease (CVD)—that's one every 7 minutes. Contrary to popular belief, these conditions do not affect only men. They are the leading cause of death among women, surpassing all types of cancer, including breast cancer. Yet 8 out of 10 deaths could be prevented through better prevention, appropriate screening, and more responsive medical care.
