AND Another chart on measles incidence in Africa

[Guest guest]

I'm sure the URL no longer works

http://primarycare.medscape.com/govmt/CDC/MMWR/1998/12.98/4748/4748.03/tab-4

748.03-01.html

And this chart gives

290,942 REPORTED cases of measles in Africa in 1997 &

11,439,541 Estimated cases in 1997 (and where do they get this estimate from)

549,125 deaths from measles in Africa in 1997 (it would seem to mean that

if the deaths from measles were reported they should be included in the

reported cases which are only 290,942

Is there something wrong with this picture????

Does anyone who has a brain analyze these numbers?

For a lot of babies out there, I think that's probably true!
