Global estimate of the prevalence of bipolar disorders among homeless people
The prevalence of bipolar disorder in homeless people is remarkably higher than the prevalence of the disorder in the general population. Getinet Ayano tells us more about his study just published in BMC Public Health in this blog.
Worldwide, as many as 150 million people or roughly 2% of the global population are classified as homeless, and as many as 1.6 billion people (20% of the world population) lack adequate housing.
