High Cardiovascular Risk Underestimated in Germany
A Robert Koch Institute study reveals that nearly 20% of German adults (35-69) have a high or elevated risk of a first heart attack or stroke within 10 years, but half underestimate their risk, based on data from 3270 telephone interviews conducted between June 2022 and January 2023.

Shingles Vaccine Linked to 23% Lower Cardiovascular Disease Risk
A South Korean study of over 1.2 million people found that the shingles vaccine reduced the risk of cardiovascular disease by 23%, particularly within eight years of vaccination and even among those with unhealthy lifestyles, suggesting a broader role for vaccination in long-term health.
