I use several Yahoo, Gmail, Comcast and an old a Hotmail and haven't seen a problem. Who is your email provider?
Yahoo is the one that doesn't update
I have to go into yahoo inbox and pull down the screen to refresh and I have to wait until it resets. If I press the home button while it is refreshing it won't reset the count either.
Refreshing all inboxes doesn't work. I have to be in the yahoo inbox.
This is my second iPhone 5 with iOS 7 and they both do that.

Are you talking about yahoo mail the APP or setting up yahoo as a e-mail account with the native app?
Same thing happens to me while using the native mail.app
It eventually clears, but not instantly like iOS6. A bug report has been submitted, so hopefully Apple adds it to upcoming releases.
I'm on 7.1 beta 4

That was my thought. I have several email accounts across different systems and this bug never happens on the others. Sometimes on yahoo, sometimes not

I get it with all my email accounts including my iCloud.com account and all I use is the native app.
What I think it is is the server updating. So if I have a notification, go into mail and delete the mail, then back out it's still there. Until mail checks the email and verifies you have no new email. Reason I think that is because on wifi it never happens. I only see it when I'm on 3G especially with poor reception.
Edit: just tested my "theory" out with airplane mode. They deleted quickly and normally. I dunno then.
