Name of the Statistical Indicator
Tuberculosis incidence per 100,000 population
Unit of Measurement
Incidence of Hepatitis B per 100,000 Population
History of the Indicator
Since 2010
Definition of the Indicator
Tuberculosis incidence rate per 100,000 population is defined as the estimated number of new and relapse cases of tuberculosis (including all forms of tuberculosis, as well as cases among people living with HIV/AIDS) occurring during a given year, per 100,000 population.
Data Processing Method
A relative indicator that characterizes the number of newly registered cases of hepatitis B among the population during a specified period (month, year), calculated per 100,000 people.
Methodology for Calculation
Tuberculosis incidence estimates are produced by the World Health Organization (WHO) through a consultative and analytical process and are published annually. These estimates are based on annual case notifications, assessments of the quality and completeness of tuberculosis surveillance data, national tuberculosis prevalence surveys, and information from civil registration and vital statistics systems. Incidence estimates for each country are calculated using one or more of the following approaches, depending on the availability of data: Incidence = number of notified cases / estimated case detection rate; Capture–recapture method; Incidence = disease prevalence / average duration of the disease. In addition to the best estimates, uncertainty intervals are also provided.
Source of the Indicator
Incidence is defined as the frequency of newly registered disease cases among the population during a specific period of time (month, year), calculated per 100,000 people. Vaccination coverage is calculated as follows: the number of individuals who received immunization during the current year divided by the number of individuals eligible for immunization in the same year, multiplied by 100.
