Rankings

Definition

Estimated new and relapse tuberculosis cases in the year per 100,000 population, all forms, people with HIV included (SDG indicator 3.3.2). WHO estimates from its Global Tuberculosis Report.

WHO estimates of all cases, notified or not, so they are higher than national counts of notified cases where many go undiagnosed. WHO revises these series, past years included, when new national reports or estimates come in, so values can change between retrievals.
