Based on the forecasted data, anaemia prevalence among children under 5 in the US is projected to rise incrementally each year from 2024 to 2028, increasing from 9.32% in 2024 to 9.79% in 2028. Compared to the 2023 actual data, this suggests a steady upward trend in prevalence. The year-on-year increase is consistent at slightly over 1%, with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) demonstrating a gradual upward trajectory over five years.
Future trends to watch for include potential shifts in dietary patterns and healthcare interventions aimed at reducing anaemia. Monitoring changes in socio-economic factors, healthcare policies, and nutritional programs will be crucial in managing and potentially curbing this trend.
