Did you know stroke is the 5th leading cause of death worldwide? Every year, millions are affected by this sudden and often silent condition. On World Stroke Day, we raise awareness about critical facts and innovations that can save lives.

It’s #WorldStrokeDay.
Most common sign of a #stroke is sudden weakness of the face, arm, or leg, often on one side of the body.
Other symptoms include dizziness, loss of balance and sudden difficulty speaking, seeing or walking.
If you or someone you know experiences these symptoms, seek medical care immediately. 👉bit.ly/3bmxIL8

Over 85% of premature deaths from NCDs occur in low- and middle-income countries. It makes NCDs a development & equity issue. We need governments to #LeadOnNCDs, bridge the equity gap & provide life-saving care for everyone Join us 👉 actonncds.org 💪#ActOnNCDs
