Over the past decade, something unexpected has been happening with stroke rates—especially among younger adults. Many people point to COVID… others point to vaccines… but what does the actual data say?

In this video, I break down:
• The long-term global stroke trend
• Why stroke rates were declining for decades
• The turning point around 2015
• What changed—and what didn’t
• What the research says about COVID and stroke risk
• What studies say about vaccines and stroke outcomes

As a stroke survivor, this isn’t just data for me—it’s personal.
This video isn’t about pushing a theory.
It’s about understanding the full picture.
Because when you look closely… the story is more complex than it first appears.
