Before her tragic death, iconic singer Tina Turner shared a health warning that could inspire others to avoid some of the issues she faced — and also serves as a timely rebuke of the country's public health eduaction and medical system.
In short, as Fitzpatrick argues, it's a damning indictment of the healthcare system's failure to prioritize health communication and medical literacy. "For far too long I believed that my body was an untouchable and indestructible bastion," she continued.at the age of 83 last month, suffered from high blood pressure and kidney disease, the latter of which led to her having a kidney transplant in 2017.
Fitzpatrick pointed out the way health messaging is often buried in a "morass of corporate jargon" and that there often isn't a clear and agreed-upon way to deliver health information. And that's all despite an abundance of readily available information., high blood pressure is the second-most common cause of kidney failure in the US, causing 28 percent of new cases. As many as one in five American adults with high blood pressure are at risk for kidney disease.
