9Age
Lupus could occur at any age, but many people between 15 and 45 are often at the highest risk. The older you are, the higher the risk can be. This is because your immune system would be weakened with age, making your body more susceptible to inflammation that causes lupus. More importantly, older people with this condition might have a much higher rate of mortality. Up to 50% of reported cases with late onsets after 50 years old die of affliction. [9]
