Broken hearted: a spotlight paper on cardiovascular disease

Institute for Public Policy Research (IPPR) - Progress on cardiovascular disease was a significant driver of better health and prosperity in the latter half of the 20th century, however progress has recently stalled – with indications it may be in reverse. While NHS waiting lists have been steadily growing over recent years, exacerbated by the pandemic, cardiology waiting lists have tripled since 2012, higher than the growth in the overall NHS waiting lists. IPPR is calling on the government to implement a re covery plan for treating cardiovascular disease, helping both the NHS and the economy.ReportPress release
