"Fatal Anaphylaxis: What the Numbers Tell Us"
http://asthmaallergieschildren.com/2014/10/10/fatal-anaphylaxis-what-the-numbers-tell-us/

QuoteWe suspected that some of the deaths due to other allergic processes or asthma might have been actually due to anaphylaxis. Thus we used a published algorithm to identify other cases of possible anaphylaxis in the mortality database. This increased the overall rate from 69 deaths per 10 million to 86 per 10 million.
