@beverleyturner @MailOnline It tells you in the article - uncontrolled hypertension. So technically not ‘healthy’. Unfortunately young people have strokes, I’ve looked after several in my career, the youngest 19. I don’t know if this man was ischemic or haemorrhagic - https://t.co/F88p5kdDvC

@RealWayneRoot Every year, more than 795,000 people in the USA have a stroke. About 610,000 of these are first or new strokes. About 87% of all strokes are ischemic strokes. https://t.co/NigXqvOFzp 10% to 15% of all strokes occur in adults aged 18 to 50 years. https://t.co/i8oLgblzOg
