Statistics by Country for Tetanus
|
About these extrapolations of prevalence and incidence statistics for Tetanus:
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 Tetanus 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 Tetanus 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 Tetanus in that region.
About prevalence and incidence statistics in general for Tetanus: The word 'prevalence' of Tetanus usually means the estimated population of people who are managing Tetanus at any given time (i.e. people with Tetanus). The term 'incidence' of Tetanus means the annual diagnosis rate, or the number of new cases of Tetanus diagnosed each year (i.e. getting Tetanus). 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 Tetanus: 40 annual cases notified in USA 1999 (MMWR 1999); rare due to vaccination.
Incidence Rate for Tetanus: approx 1 in 6,800,000 or 0.00% or 40 people in USA [about data]
Extrapolation of Incidence Rate for Tetanus to Countries and Regions: The following table attempts to extrapolate the above incidence rate for Tetanus to the populations of various countries and regions. As discussed above, these incidence extrapolations for Tetanus are only estimates and may have limited relevance to the actual incidence of Tetanus in any region:
