RaeAnn Tucker joined Wake Up Tri-Counties to discuss Wear Red Day on February 7th, Heart Health Month in February, and the Smoke-Free Illinois Act. This Friday, February 7th, marks National Wear Red Day, a nationwide effort to raise awareness about women and heart disease. The Henry and Stark County Health Departments, alongside their First Choice Healthcare clinics in Kewanee, Colona, and Toulon, are joining forces with the American Heart Association to spotlight this critical issue. This February marks American Heart Month, a crucial time to spotlight heart health and the dangers of tobacco use. The Henry and Stark County Health Departments are emphasizing the link between smoking and cardiovascular diseases, which remain the leading cause of death globally. Tobacco use significantly increases the risk of coronary heart disease, stroke, and peripheral vascular disease. Efforts are underway to enforce the Smoke-Free Illinois Act, which bans smoking, vaping, and e-cigarette use in public spaces and workplaces. This law aims to protect residents from the harmful effects of secondhand smoke, responsible for over 41,000 deaths annually in the U.S. The Health Department urges compliance and education to combat these preventable risks. The Smoke-Free Illinois Act requires that all business owners: Do not permit smoking, vaping, or e-cigarettes within 15 feet of entrances, exits, windows that open, and ventilation intakes. Post “No Smoking” signs at each entrance. Remove ashtrays from areas where smoking is prohibited. The Health Department notes that failure to comply with the Smoke-Free Illinois Act can result in fines. For more information about the Health Department's Illinois Tobacco-Free activities or for “No Smoking” signs or window clings for your business, call 309-852-0197 Extension 249.

It's American Heart Month.When it comes to heart disease and heart attacks, women commonly face misdiagnoses and delays in receiving care.These medical missteps mean women are twice as likely as men to die after having a heart attack. That's according to the European Society of Cardiology.That's also one of many reasons the CDC says heart disease is the leading cause of death for women in the United States. New technological advancements are also helping women have more agency over their heart health. We discuss how women can better understand the risk factors of heart disease. Want to support 1A?
