Mobile County Health Department staff wear red for women's heart health on Feb. 6, 2015



Heart attacks don't just strike men of a certain age and temperament. In fact, heart disease and stroke kill 1 in 3 women, according to the National Heart Association. Friday, Feb. 6, is National Wear Red Day. The goal of the initiative is to show support for raising awareness of heart disease and its symptoms.

Dozens of members of the Mobile County Health Department dressed in bright red hues Friday to visibly recognize the need for more education about heart disease and women's health.
