How many people have CFIDS?
Carefully designed studies conducted by independent researchers using restrictive criteria have yielded estimates that at least 200,000 to 500,000 adults in the U.S. have CFIDS. CDC data confirm these estimates. Prevalence studies of the illness among children and teenagers have not been done. Many cases of CFIDS among youth and adults remain undiagnosed or misdiagnosed.

These conservative minimum estimates support the fact that CFIDS is one of the most prevalent chronic illnesses of our time. For example, it is at least twice as common as multiple sclerosis.
