It was about a week ago I read a news article whereby the EMTs in New York City were reporting an increase in heart attacks. Heart attacks can occur for several reasons, such as plague occlusions and the like, but, blood clots can be a determining factor as well.
I have to also wonder about any increase incidence of brain strokes. Has there been an increase of strokes and quite possibly an anticoagulant protocol used in the ER to end the stroke?
