A rare disease in Europe is a disease affecting less than 1 in 2,000 citizens In the United States, a rare disease is any disease or condition that affects 1 in 1,500 people 29 million people affected in the EU 3 million people Spain 3 millions people in France (1 in 20) 600 000-800 000 people in Portugal 3.5 million people in the UK 1 million people in the Netherlands 25 million people USA
