Epidemiological Studies

The global burden of fungal disease varies substantially by country and by locality within country, as well as by risk group. To gain a full picture of the incidence and prevalence of fungal diseases, as well as trends over time, local, regional and national studies are critical.

In addition to estimating the burden of fungal diseases by country see published papers here and 60 country abstracts here:
