Description: This episode of The Scan features Professor Alta Schutte and Professor Anthony Rodgers discussing one of the world’s biggest health challenges, and a potentially life changing new solution. Around 1.3 billion people live with hypertension (high blood pressure); most live in low- and middle-income countries. It’s a leading cause of heart attacks, strokes, and early death. But there’s hope. In this episode we explore a new treatment solution, the Hypertension Polypill, that could accelerate and simplify care and save lives.
