I'd add anyone with a CT calcium score higher than ZERO. My moderate score (139) triggered me to go on a statin 16 years ago. Would really like to do another if I can find one for moderate cost since my insurance will not cover it without symptoms (I have none).

Notice the "75." I guess they really are serious about not starting the elderly on a statin.
