WHO TB burden estimates

This includes WHO-generated estimates of TB mortality, incidence (including disaggregation by age, sex, risk factors, HIV status, rifampicin resistance), case fatality ratio, treatment coverage (previously called case detection rate), proportion of TB cases that have rifampicin-resistant TB (RR-TB, which includes cases with multidrug-resistant TB, MDR-TB), and latent TB infection among children aged under 5.

Data provided by countries and territories

Note: The database is updated regularly as countries notify WHO of corrections to previously submitted data. Therefore country data downloaded to CSV files may differ slightly from the data available at the time the Global Tuberculosis Report is written.
