Who's At Risk?
According to the American Stroke Association, people at least 75 years old, African Americans
and men have the highest risk and incidence of stroke. However, a person of any age can have a stroke. Those who have had a stroke have an increased risk of another one, especially within
the first year of the original stroke.

If you experience any of the warning signs of a stroke mentioned in the red box to the right, seek immediate medical help. Time is critical in preventing a stroke's damaging effects.
