Tuberculosis incidence per 100,000 population
Unit of Measurement
per 100 thousand live births
History of the Indicator
since 2010
Definition of the Indicator
The tuberculosis incidence rate per 100,000 people is defined as the estimated number of new or newly infected with tuberculosis (all forms of tuberculosis, including people with AIDS, are taken into account) that occurred in a given year, per 100,000 population.
Methodology for Calculation
Tuberculosis incidence estimates are made as part of a consultative and analytical process conducted by WHO and are published annually. These estimates are based on annual case notifications, an assessment of the quality and coverage of tuberculosis incidence data, national tuberculosis prevalence surveys, and information from population movement accounting systems. Incidence estimates for each country are made using one or more of the following approaches, depending on the available data: (i) Incidence rate = number of case notifications/estimated proportion of cases detected; (ii) the double coverage method (iii) incidence rate = prevalence of the disease / duration of the condition. The uncertainty bounds are provided in addition to the best estimates.
