Statistics by Country for Toxic Shock Syndrome
|
About these extrapolations of prevalence and incidence statistics for Toxic Shock Syndrome:
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 Toxic Shock Syndrome 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 Toxic Shock Syndrome 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 Toxic Shock Syndrome in that region.
About prevalence and incidence statistics in general for Toxic Shock Syndrome: The word 'prevalence' of Toxic Shock Syndrome usually means the estimated population of people who are managing Toxic Shock Syndrome at any given time (i.e. people with Toxic Shock Syndrome). The term 'incidence' of Toxic Shock Syndrome means the annual diagnosis rate, or the number of new cases of Toxic Shock Syndrome diagnosed each year (i.e. getting Toxic Shock Syndrome). 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 Toxic Shock Syndrome: 113 annual cases notified in USA 1999 (MMWR 1999); 1-2 per 100,000 (DBMD)
Incidence Rate for Toxic Shock Syndrome: approx 1 in 2,407,079 or 0.00% or 112 people in USA [about data]
Extrapolation of Incidence Rate for Toxic Shock Syndrome to Countries and Regions: The following table attempts to extrapolate the above incidence rate for Toxic Shock Syndrome to the populations of various countries and regions. As discussed above, these incidence extrapolations for Toxic Shock Syndrome are only estimates and may have limited relevance to the actual incidence of Toxic Shock Syndrome in any region:
