Statistics by Country for Yersiniosis

About these extrapolations of prevalence and incidence statistics for Yersiniosis: 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 Yersiniosis 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 Yersiniosis 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 Yersiniosis in that region.

About prevalence and incidence statistics in general for Yersiniosis: The word 'prevalence' of Yersiniosis usually means the estimated population of people who are managing Yersiniosis at any given time (i.e. people with Yersiniosis). The term 'incidence' of Yersiniosis means the annual diagnosis rate, or the number of new cases of Yersiniosis diagnosed each year (i.e. getting Yersiniosis). 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 Yersiniosis: approx 1 per 100,000 annually (DBMD); 19 cases in NJ 1998 (NJ DHSS)
Incidence Rate for Yersiniosis: approx 1 in 100,000 or 0.00% or 2,720 people in USA [about data]
Extrapolation of Incidence Rate for Yersiniosis to Countries and Regions: The following table attempts to extrapolate the above incidence rate for Yersiniosis to the populations of various countries and regions. As discussed above, these incidence extrapolations for Yersiniosis are only estimates and may have limited relevance to the actual incidence of Yersiniosis in any region:
