I know this isn't directly related to stroke but I can correlate anything to stroke.

At least the chief medical officer of the Alzheimer's Association can put out decent press releases keeping that disease in front of the American people.
If we compare the 5.4 million people in the United States have Alzheimer's disease, and their 14.9 million caregivers provided a total of 17 billion hours of unpaid care, valued at more than $200 billion, according to the report. With 6 million stroke survivors the numbers could be close to the same. Who is speaking up for the stroke survivors? I don't see either the ASA or NSA stepping up to the plate, at least as far as survivors are concerned. Tell me who is or the excuses that someone isn't.
