Whirlwinds 🌬️, Wellness 💊, Cardiac Woes 😟

Tropical cyclones don't just shake buildings — they shake hearts too. A powerful multicountry study in Science Advances links 🌊 storm exposure to a 13% rise in cardiovascular hospitalizations, especially ischemic heart disease and stroke. Vulnerable groups? Men, adults aged 20–59, and socioeconomically deprived communities.   🧠 The risk peaks ~2 months post-cyclone and lasts up to 6 months. 🧭 It's time to rethink disaster response — beyond winds and water, to hearts and health equity. #Cardiology #ClimateHealth #PublicHealth #DisasterPreparedness #GlobalHealth #CVD #Epidemiology #ClimateChange 🌍
