Statistics by Country for Amebiasis
|
About these extrapolations of prevalence and incidence statistics for Amebiasis:
These statistics are calculated extrapolations of various prevalence or incidence rates
against the populations of a particular country or region.
The statistics used for prevalence/incidence of Amebiasis are typically based on US, UK, Canadian or Australian statistics.
This extrapolation calculation is automated and does not take into account any genetic, cultural, environmental, social, racial or other differences
across the various countries and regions for which the extrapolated Amebiasis statistics below refer to.
As such, these extrapolations may be highly inaccurate (especially for developing or third-world countries) and only give a general indication (or even a meaningless indication)
as to the actual prevalence or incidence of Amebiasis in that region.
About prevalence and incidence statistics in general for Amebiasis: The word 'prevalence' of Amebiasis usually means the estimated population of people who are managing Amebiasis at any given time (i.e. people with Amebiasis). The term 'incidence' of Amebiasis means the annual diagnosis rate, or the number of new cases of Amebiasis diagnosed each year (i.e. getting Amebiasis). Hence, these two statistics types can differ: a short disease like flu can have high annual incidence but low prevalence, but a life-long disease like diabetes has a low annual incidence but high prevalence. For more information see about prevalence and incidence statistics. |
Incidence (annual) of Amebiasis: 54 cases in NJ 1998 (NJ DHSS)
Incidence Rate for Amebiasis: approx 1 in 150,800 or 0.00% or 1,803 people in USA [about data]
Extrapolation of Incidence Rate for Amebiasis to Countries and Regions: The following table attempts to extrapolate the above incidence rate for Amebiasis to the populations of various countries and regions. As discussed above, these incidence extrapolations for Amebiasis are only estimates and may have limited relevance to the actual incidence of Amebiasis in any region:
