About statistics:

This page presents a variety of statistics about African Sleeping sickness. The term 'prevalence' of African Sleeping sickness usually refers to the estimated population of people who are managing African Sleeping sickness at any given time. The term 'incidence' of African Sleeping sickness refers to the annual diagnosis rate, or the number of new cases of African Sleeping sickness diagnosed each year. Hence, these two statistics types can differ: a short-lived 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.
