Are You Getting a Hard Attack When You're Just Turning 40?
Stephanie Coontz is an economist and assistant professor of health policy and management at columbia university. She saw him present some research about left dijibias at harvard, where she teaches. He found that patients showing up in the emergency department just after their fortieth birthday were something like ten per cent more likely to be tested for a hard attack than those who showed up shortly before them. But he says there's nothing biologically different about someone who's a month before their Fortieth birthday or a month after it.
