The anaemia prevalence among children under 5 in Canada in 2023 stood at 9.35%. Forecasts indicate slight year-on-year increases: 9.36% in 2024, incrementally reaching 9.41% by 2028. The compound annual growth rate (CAGR) over this period is minimal, reflecting a slow but steady rise in anaemia prevalence.
Future trends to monitor include:
- Potential policy interventions aimed at reducing nutritional deficiencies.
- Shifts in dietary habits and healthcare access that could influence anaemia rates.
- Economic and societal factors affecting child health and nutrition.
