Milestones

Make it a legal requirement for defibrillators to be available in all types of gym or exercise establishment.

With over 90% of sudden cardiac arrests in young athletes occurring during or just after exercise, a readily available AED can increase survival rates from near 0% to 50-70% if used within 3–5 minutes of a cardiac arrest.
