About statistics:

This page presents a variety of statistics about Babesiosis. The term 'prevalence' of Babesiosis usually refers to the estimated population of people who are managing Babesiosis at any given time. The term 'incidence' of Babesiosis refers to the annual diagnosis rate, or the number of new cases of Babesiosis 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.
