Heart Disease in Papua New Guinea

•December 20, 2007 • 1 Comment

The victims of heart attack (myocardial infarction) in PNG are younger patients in the age range of 40 – 60 years as compared with developed world. Every year PNG seem to lose a good number of prominent people who contribute productively to nation building.Recent victim  was judge Moses Jalina. The health department and National Doctors Association should write a submissio to persuade the government in setting up training for cardiothoracic surgery in PNG. Although the initial set will be costly but in the long run it will PNG a lot of money.Financial speaking it cost about AUD $ 60 – 70 (excluding other costs) thousand dollars to get a bypass surgery done in Australia. Every year about 10 – 15 Papua New Guineans go to Australia to have the procedure done. This would mean PNG is losing a million PNG kina per year to Australia.Until something is done to change our diet and practice of life back to what our  forefathers did, heart disease is here to kill our productive work force at young age.                          __________MAIENDUO___________

There seem to be numerous people asking for donation to support the people affected. I am wondering if these people are genuine?
