About statistics:

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