Prevalence of hemophilia in Ontario, 1966
Records of admission to general hospitals throughout Ontario over a six-month period, together with an independently existing list of hemophiliacs known to the Canadian Haemophilia Society, furnish the basis for a statistical estimate of the prevalence of hemophilia in 1966. This is set at 1.44 or more per 10,000 males at birth. It is inferred from age-specific data that the prevalence among the general population may be rising beyond its present level of about 1 per 10,000 living males.
