Far more could have been done to prevent Mr. Russert's needless death. And I don't mean making AED's available in office buildings. I'm talking about preventing the rupture of atherosclerotic plaque in the first place.
More can be done to prevent future similar deaths among all of us. Our job is to use the tragic death of Mr. Russert to help those around us learn that heart disease is identifiable and preventable. Though Mr. Russert championed honesty and full disclosure in political commentary, he sadly probably did not receive it in his health advice. Don't let this happen to you or those around you.
