History Of Sports Medicine
Incidence is the number of new cases of a condition, symptom, death, or injury that develop during a specific time period, such as a year. The number is often expressed as a percentage of a population. For example, 25% of Americans were diagnosed with the flu in 2002.
Incidence shows the likelihood that a person in that population will be affected by the condition.
