A groundbreaking study released by Stanford University this month has confirmed one of the greatest medical triumphs of the century: death rates from heart attacks in the US have dropped by nearly 90% since 1970. The study credits this staggering decline to a "synergistic power" of advanced science, better emergency protocols, and public health initiatives that have effectively turned what was once a likely fatal event into a manageable condition.
