Non-communicable diseases that were earlier seen mostly after the age of 60 are now appearing among people in their 40s, particularly after the COVID-19 pandemic, said noted neurologist Dr. Sushrutha Gowda stressing the need for greater attention to heart and brain health.
He was speaking at a free health check-up and consultation camp held on Thursday in the city. The programme was organised by S.M. Krishna Memorial Neuro Zone and the Print Journalists of Mysuru, in association with New Med Diagnostics
