The availability of statistics relating to deafness in the United Kingdom

L Shepherd. Br J Audiol. 1978 Feb.

Abstract

Statistics concerning the prevalence of deafness in the United Kingdom are constantly being requested. Authoritative figures do not exist concerning the adult deaf population. However, a variety of statistics is available and an attempt has been made to collate these in order that some assessment of the size of the problem may be made.
