And why don't they tell you about the 50% reduction of a marijuana bud a day?
Then you need to redirect the discussion to exactly what they are doing to prevent the neuronal cascade of death in the first week. My 30 actions in the immediate aftermath of my next stroke.
You have to put them on the spot and prove to them they know nothing about stroke prevention and rehab.

The continuing Health Education Series at the Bristol Public
Library on the second Thursday of each month will feature a presentation
on Stroke for the Oct. 10 event. The program will begin at 7 p.m. in
the J. Henry Kegley Meeting Room. The presenter will be Dr. Earl Wilson,
a board certified neurologist, or one of the other physicians from the
Bristol Regional Medical Center Primary Stroke Center.
It is estimated by the Center for Disease Control that 130,000 Americans die each year from stroke. That is one in every 19 deaths and one death from stroke every four minutes. Every year, more than 795,000 people in the United States have a stroke. About 610,000 of these are first or new strokes. One in four is a recurrent stroke. Stroke costs the United States an estimated $38.6 billion each year. This total includes the cost of health care services, medications, and missed days of work. Stroke is also the leading cause of serious long-term disability in the United States. The region with the highest percentage of stroke is the southeastern area with particularly high percentages in Northeast Tennessee and Southwest Virginia.
The Health Education Series is done as a
partnership with the Bristol Family Residency Program of the Quillen
College of Medicine and Wellmont Health Systems. The series has been
very successful in providing audiences with information on health issues
that impact the Bristol region. Many audience members has been at every
event and to quote one attendee, “Each one is better than the last.”
