Data Notes

*Use caution in interpreting. The estimate has a coefficient of variation >30% and is therefore deemed unreliable by Utah Department of Health and Human Services standards.[[br]] The U.S. prevalence is based on 29 states plus DC who asked about child asthma prevalence in their state BRFSS in 2022.
