Et si le coeur vous en dit - Interview with Thierry Drilhon

Thanks to Versailles+ and Stéphanie Herter for this interview designed to inform, raise awareness and mobilize the people of Versailles around this societal and medical emergency.

Et si le coeur vous en dit - Interview with Thierry Drilhon

Because cardiovascular disease has become the leading cause of death for women in France and worldwide, killing younger and younger women every day, prevention is the best medicine.

In 2021, 1,066 women benefited from a screening and detection program, saving 955 of them from developing the disease in the short or medium term.
I'm delighted to see the people of Versailles joining the great family of prevention hummingbirds.
