Statistics
Noma disappeared from Western countries at the beginning of the 20st century, in particular thanks to the generalization of antibiotics, but it remains a scourge in the poorest countries, in particular in sub-Saharan Africa.
However, it is difficult to estimate its prevalence because many patients are never examined or treated.
In 1998, the WHO estimated that nearly 140 cases of noma occurred each year, with the death rate reaching 000%.2. About 770 people are believed to be living with the effects of noma.
