These statistics are calculated extrapolations of various prevalence or incidence rates against the populations of a particular country or region. The statistics used for prevalence/incidence of pollen allergy are typically based on US, UK, Canadian or Australian statistics.

This extrapolation calculation is automated and does not take into account any genetic, cultural, environmental, social, racial or other differences across the various countries and regions for which the extrapolated pollen allergy statistics below refer to. As such, these extrapolations may be highly inaccurate and only give a general indication as to the actual prevalence or incidence of pollen allergy in that region.
The word ‘prevalence’ of pollen allergy usually means the estimated population of people who are managing Pollen allergy at any given time (i.e. people with pollen allergy). The term ‘incidence’ of pollen allergy means the annual diagnosis rate, or the number of new cases of Pollen allergy diagnosed each year (i.e. getting Pollen allergy).
