    Prevalence of stunting (height for age <-2 standard deviation from the median of the World Health Organization (WHO) Child Growth Standards) among children under 5 years of age

    Definition

    To the best of our knowledge, there are no such statistics for 0-5 year-old chil-dren, since general practitioners are not obligated to report data on height/weight for children older than one year. Data (from the general practi-tioners) is available from the Danish Health Data Authority's database on chil-dren aged 0.
