@StanTheMan – the figure for over 65s would be nearer 60% for hypertension alone. Yes, blood pressure tends to increase with age (often for lifestyle reasons as much as anything else) but to suggest it doesn’t affect a huge (and growing) proportion of younger people, many of whom have a genetic predisposition, is absurd. Statins are being taken by increasingly younger people at potential risk.
What are you suggesting is the correct number for say people 45-50 taking one or both types of meducation?
I would be accused of shilling for Amex if I made these various comments trying to cover up the problems of its Plat medical cover.
