Just Released: 2020 Alzheimer's Disease Facts and Figures
[link removed]
Dear John,
As a member of our community, you're
critical in helping to achieve our vision of a world without
Alzheimer's and all other dementia.
That's why I wanted you to be one of
the first to see our newly released 2020 Alzheimer's Disease Facts and
Figures report. From the latest numbers on prevalence and risks, to
tools for diagnosis and advancing research, this annual report is
filled with the most current data on Alzheimer's and how it impacts
our loved ones, communities and health care systems.

The most recent numbers make it even
more critical that we end this devastating disease:
* In 2019, more than 16 million caregivers provided an estimated
18.6 billion hours of unpaid care, a contribution to the nation
valued at more than $244 billion - an increase of $10
billion compared to last year.
* The total lifetime cost of care for someone with dementia was
estimated at $357,297 in 2019 dollars.
* In 2020, the total national cost of caring for people with
Alzheimer's and other dementia is projected to reach $305
billion.
You can also see facts and figures
specific to your state.

We know that behind the numbers there
are individuals affected by this disease, which is why we are fully
committed to ending Alzheimer's.
With you by our side, we will continue
to be relentless in our efforts to make Alzheimer's a national
priority. We're working hard to provide care and support to all those
in need, to raise awareness of this devastating disease and advance
critical research toward methods of prevention, treatment and,
ultimately, a cure.
