Cardiovascular diseases remain the leading cause of death in Romania, with a significant portion being preventable through lifestyle changes. The Romanian government has approved a national strategy to combat these diseases, focusing on prevention and early diagnosis. Cardiologist Dr. Nicoleta Tascan emphasizes that over 75% of cardiovascular issues stem from modifiable risk factors, such as unhealthy lifestyles.
