To help the public become more aware of the dangers of stroke, its
prevention and the importance of getting emergency help, Angels
Initiative and Stroke Society of the Philippines enlisted the help of the
Philippine King of Talk Boy Abunda through an online event called
Stroke 101: Knowing the basics of stroke is a way of loving oneself on
Feb. 11, 2021, 7 p.m. via the Stroke Society of the Philippines
official Facebook page (https://www.facebook.com/SSPFBPage/).
This event is open to the general public.
Stroke is the second leading cause of death worldwide 1 and in the
Philippines. 2 If not treated in a timely manner, a stroke can have emotional, physical or even fatal consequences. Because of its urgent nature, Angels Initiative and Stroke Society of the Philippines urge the public to rush a person exhibiting stroke symptoms to the nearest hospital for emergency treatment.
