Incidence and prevalence of illness (national estimates) / prepared jointly by the Dominion Bureau of Statistics and the Department of National Health and Welfare.CS82-507/1955E-PDF

“This bulletin is the seventh in the series of preliminary publications of the Canadian Sickness Survey. The first four reports dealt with family expenditures for health services. The fifth report was concerned with the volume of sickness and the sixth with permanent physical disabilities. The present report deals with the incidence and prevalence of illness. Subsequent bulletins will record the type and amount of treatment received in connection with illness and with the classification of illness by diagnostic group. The report on the volume of sickness (bulletin No. 5) was concerned with periods of ill health, taking no account of the actual number of distinct illnesses of various diagnosis which a person might suffer during such periods. In the present report all illnesses are counted separately, regardless of whether or not they overlapped or concurred"--Scope, p. [5].
