Did you know that as of fall 2024, COVID-19 cases are on the rise in Hawaii? The Hawaii Department of Health reports an increase in COVID-19 activity across the state, with elevated case counts and hospitalizations compared to earlier in the year. This trend is attributed to the emergence of new variants, along with reduced immunity in the population due to the time since previous vaccinations or infections.

If you are in need of a new COVID test kit we supply available for you and your family.

Did you know that today is WORLD HEART DAY? World Heart Day is a global, multi-lingual celebration.

Spanning six continents, hundreds of World Heart Federation (WHF) member organizations, the countless schools, universities, sports clubs and the vibrant cardiology community make World Heart Day (WHD) a truly global celebration.

Every year these groups and individuals bring their local flair, favor and colors to festivities, marking the day by sharing heart healthy regional specialties, leading a dance to get the whole community moving, and sharing life-saving lessons far and wide.

Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the world’s number one killer. Combined, conditions affecting the heart or blood vessels – such as heart attack, stroke and heart failure – kill more than 20.5 million every year. The majority of these deaths happen in low- and middle-income countries.

We want to bring this number down – way down. And there’s hope: 80% of premature deaths from CVD are preventable. By making small changes to our lifestyle – what we eat and drink, how much we exercise, and how we manage stress – we can better manage our heart health and beat CVD.

If you have questions about your hearth health, call us at (808) 293-9231 or visit koolauloachc.org to make and appointment. We’d love to help you!
