I know in Australia 1 in 100 children are born with heart disease. That is about 6 each day. This of course doesn't take into account aquired heart disease so it will sure be a lot of people. My son is 2 1/2 and was born with pulmonary atrestia. Hope that helps a little.

Cardiovascular disease: Is heart, stroke and blood vessel disease. Kills one Australian every ten minutes. Affects more than 3.5 million Australians. Prevents 1.4 million people from living a full life because of disability caused by the disease. Was suffered by one in six Australians in 2004, and affected two out of three families. Claimed the lives of almost 48,000 Australians (35 per cent of all deaths) in 2004 - deaths that are largely preventable. Killed almost 11.500 Australian women in 2004, more than four times the number who die from breast cancer.
