1 Official tuberculosis mortality statistics were compiled by the National Center for Health Statistics, CDC, National Vital Statistics Reports.
2 Case data after 1974 are not comparable to prior years due to changes in the surveillance case definition that became effective in 1975.
3 The large decrease in death rate in 1979 occurred because late effects of tuberculosis (e.g., bronchiectasis or fibrosis) and pleurisy with effusion (without mention of cause) are no longer included in tuberculosis deaths.
Percent change in tuberculosis death rates is calculated with rounded figures. See Technical Notes.
Note: 1993 to 2012 tuberculosis case counts and rates updated as of June 25, 2012, using Bridged-Race 1990–1999 Intercensal Population Estimates for 1990–1999 (ftp://ftp.cdc.gov/pub/health_statistics/nchs/datasets/nvss/bridgepop/documentationbridgedintercena1.doc) (accessed August 12, 2013) and Intercensal Estimates of the Resident Population for the United States, Regions, States, and Puerto Rico: April 1, 2000 to July 1, 2010 (http://www.census.gov/popest/data/intercensal/state/state2010.html) (accessed August 12, 2013) and Annual Estimates of the Resident Population for the United States, Regions, States, and Puerto Rico: April 1, 2010 to July 1, 2012 (http://www.census.gov/popest/data/national/totals/2012/index.html) (accessed August 12, 2013).
Percentage change results reported to one decimal. Ellipses indicate data not available. See Surveillance Slides #2 and #3.
