🧊But insured losses are the tip of the iceberg.

🔍Making invisible costs visible is a step towards reducing future risk.

❄️Cold weather kills hearts at a rate health systems aren't prepared for

In the USA, ~40,000 excess cardiovascular deaths/year are linked to cold vs ~2,000 for heat.

As extreme cold becomes less frequent, preparedness gaps grow, meaning more risk.
