[gotcha] Should I give aspirin to someone having a stroke?

Never recommend aspirin for suspected stroke. Instruct to call emergency services immediately and note the time of symptom onset. Do not give food, water, or medication.

Journey Context:
Agents confuse ischemic stroke \(where aspirin might be indicated later in-hospital\) with hemorrhagic stroke \(where it is fatal\). A layperson or AI cannot differentiate between the two without a CT scan. Recommending aspirin for stroke symptoms is a critical error that can turn a survivable bleed into a fatal one.
