@SarahMatuja @goodluck_nchasi @innocentkitandu @DrNgimbwa @RobNPeck Important work with concerning implications. Well done @SarahMatuja for continuing to extensively study stroke and cerebrovascular epidemiology in Tanzania.

Tanzania launches 1st stroke registry follow-up study! Key findings: 9/10 patients died within 3 years, no health insurance =4x higher risk of death. Call to Action: Universal Health Coverage & structured follow-up for stroke survivors are CRITICAL! https://t.co/JGpXKnz5YJ
