Nearly 3 Million People Worldwide Live with MS
An estimated 2.9 million people globally are living with multiple sclerosis.
In the United States alone, nearly 1 million people have MS, almost double what researchers believed just a decade ago.

Women Are 3x More Likely to Develop MS
MS affects women about three times more often than men.
In some regions, that ratio is even higher, and it has been steadily increasing over the past few decades.

MS Is the Leading Cause of Non-Traumatic Neurological Disability in Young Adults
MS is the most common cause of neurological disability (not caused by injury) in young adults.
Most people are diagnosed between ages 2040, often right in the middle of career-building and starting families.

MS Costs the U.S. Over $85,000 Per Person Per Year
The average annual cost per person with MS in the United States exceeds $85,000, including healthcare costs and lost productivity.
Nationally, MS costs the U.S. economy tens of billions of dollars every year.
