1Per 100,000 population.
2The
large decrease 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.
3 Preliminary
data obtained from National Center for Health Statistics National Vital
Statistics Report, Vol. 51, No. 5, March 13, 2003.
Ellipses indicate data not available.
Note: Official tuberculosis mortality statistics are compiled by the National
Center for Health Statistics, CDC. Case data after 1974 are not comparable
to prior years due to changes in the surveillance case definition that became
effective in 1975.
