New Zealand Prevalence Study
Submitted by art on Tue, 2008-09-16 06:43.
A small country is the first to do a whole country prevalence study of MS. While the numbers varied by region, we see that magic "1 in a 1,000" approximate number popping up yet again. While it seems that MS is so much more prevalent, every study that actually goes and counts MS patients ends up being in that vicinity.
Kudos to NZ for actually going and doing this. Wouldn't it be nice if the US, or even one state would do this?
