No, that statement is actually true. Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is indeed the second leading cause of death for women in the United States. The leading cause of death for both men and women is heart disease, which falls under the umbrella term of CVD. CVD includes various conditions such as coronary artery disease, heart attacks, and strokes. It is important to raise awareness about the risk factors and promote heart-healthy habits to prevent CVD in women and reduce these statistics.
