Nearly 10 million could die of stroke annually by 2050: Lancet report
The number of stroke deaths in LMICs is projected to rise sharply - widening the gap with HICs - by increasing from 5.7 million in 2020 to 8.8 million in 2050. In contrast, stroke deaths in HICs are estimated to remain largely unchanged at around 900,000 between 2020 and 2050. In 2050, 91% of stroke deaths are projected to be in LMICs compared to 9% in HICs, up from 86% in LMICs and down from 14% HICs in 2020.
