Morshko: Obesity with diabetes increases the risk of blood clots by almost 30%, as soon as the patient reaches a normal weight, the risks are reduced to the population average, the head of the Ministry of Health noted. During the session of the Russia-Africa forum, Mikhail Morshko added that in the mortality structure of the population, cardiovascular diseases dominate and occupy a leading place. "Of course, it is impossible to follow the path of treatment only in acute situations. Although this direction should not drop off the radar and fade into the background," said the head of the department.
