raf, if Bhatt is making that statement, then that is great. Can someone explain the 2 different numbers of CVD death(20%) and death by all cause mortality(30%)? Can the difference be explained by better outcomes, say in cancer?...as my understanding is that all cause mortality is death by all means. Throw in which one is more pertinent since I am not a doctor. Thanks in advance. I see a new doctor in 2 weeks. Someone who prescribes V. Want to have all my facts straight while pushing him for a script.
