Heart disease is the leading cause of death in Australia. On average, one Australian dies every 12 minutes as a result of a cardio vascular disease. When it comes to heart attacks, one Australian dies almost every hour. Do you know how to recognise the signs of a heart attack and what to do if it happens?The sooner you recognise the signs of a heart attack and seek treatment, the higher the chance you'll have a full recovery…The chances of suffering a heart attack are much smaller if you lead a healthy life. But if it happens to you or somebody around you, remember the signs and act fast.For more information visit The Heart Foundationhttps://www.heartfoundation.org.au/Heart Week https://www.heartfoundation.org.au/campaigns/heartweekInformation about heart attacks in your language https://www.heartfoundation.org.au/support/information-in-your-language
