Cada minuto cuenta, México

As it does every year, Mexico participated in the activities of the World Stroke Campaign. In 2025, Red Ictus México AC, an association of stroke patients, caregivers, and family members, organized a high-impact media campaign in coordination with universities, medical students, physicians, and government health authorities. Key activities included more than ten appearances on television and radio programs, visits to companies and universities to give talks to their employees on prevention, healthy eating, and early detection to improve stroke care. An academic course was held for medical students, nurses, paramedics, and physicians from various specialties to update their knowledge on pre-hospital and hospital stroke management. We even managed to organize a meeting with government authorities to promote the TeleStroke program. An art exhibition was held featuring works created by stroke survivors who used visual arts as a form of cognitive and physical rehabilitation. We participated in a walk/run 2K with the WSO slogan "Every Minute Counts" on the Health Sciences campus of the School of Medicine, with over 1,500 participants. We also worked extensively on social media, achieving record numbers in the region. In general, it was a fantastic event with great community participation. We take this opportunity to thank the television channels Multimedios and Canal 53 UANL for their support, as well as the medical companies and the Ángeles Initiative for their unwavering support.
