Stroke
Frequently Asked Questions
2. Who gets stroke?
Stroke occurs in all age groups, in both sexes, and in all races in
every country. It can even occur before birth, when the fetus is
still in the womb. Nearly three-quarters of all strokes occur in
people over the age of 65. And the risk of having a stroke more
than doubles each decade after the age of 55.
