Stale Health Depart-
ment News Notes
State Health Officer George W.
Cox forecast the death this year
of some 30,000 Texans due to heart
and blood vessel diseases. Twenty
thousand will be men, and at least
half the total figure, both men and
women will be less than 70 years old.
The problem of worn out hearts,
i thickened blood vessels, and kidney
disorders is an old one, he asserted,
but said the longer length of aver-
age life isn’t the whole reason for
the great number of heart disease
deaths.
To prove that point he quoted these
figures: Of the 30,000 Texans that
cardiovascular (heart and blood ves-
sel) diseases will kill in 1952, about
15.000 will be less than 70 years old,
700 will be in their 30’s, 2,000 will be
In their 40’s, 4,500 in their 50’s, and
at least 7,000 in the 60’s.
Since 1941, the male death rate has
exceeded the female rate by some-
thing like 70 percent, the health of-
ficer said. For those 75 and over
the risk of death from heart disease
. is a fourth again as great for men
* as it is for women.
These ever increasing deaths to
heart, kidney and blood vessel dis- i
orders have been observed for the |
last 30 or 40 years.
“If a statewide heart program is to
develop,” he declared, “it will be >
necessary that there be provided a
professional coordinating committee |
that will council on program proced- i
ures and give necessary directions
on essential medical services.”
He credited the American Heart
Association with ‘.successfully influ-
encing" fund appropriations and for
formulating a heart control program
for the nation.
