WHO releases a ‘Global report on hypertension: The race against a silent killer’

The World Health Organisation (WHO) has released a report on the devastating impact of high blood pressure, also known as silent killer. The first-ever report on this topic shows nearly four out of five people with hypertension are not adequately treated across the world. It also said that a staggering 76 million deaths could be averted by 2050 if countries can scale up the coverage.
