FAIRFAX, Va., May 6, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Nearly all American adults (95%) agree stroke is an emergency, yet according to new omnibus survey by The Harris Poll on behalf of the Get Ahead of Stroke® campaign, less than half (43%) say they would call 911 if they were experiencing a common symptom of stroke—statistics that emphasize the need for more education, particularly during Survive Stroke Week (May 6-12).

  • Get Ahead of Stroke is a national public education and advocacy campaign designed to improve systems of care for stroke patients.

FAIRFAX, Va., Oct. 24, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Ahead of World Stroke Day, October 29, physicians from the Get Ahead of Stroke® campaign are highlighting a sobering statistic: While the prevalence of stroke in the United States is declining in adults 75 and older, it is rising in adults 49 and younger.

  • Knowing that stroke can occur at any age, the public must remember that calling 911 is never an overreaction — stroke is always an emergency.
  • "This World Stroke Day, we hope Americans remember that anyone, at any age can have a stroke.
  • World Stroke Day is a global awareness day established by the World Stroke Organization that provides a global platform for the stroke community to increase awareness and drive action on stroke around the world.
