Slide 11: Number of TB Cases in U.S.-born vs. Foreign-born
Persons, United States, 1991-2001. This graph plots the number
of U.S.-born vs. foreign-born persons reported with TB each year, from
1991 through 2001. It illustrates the sharp increase in the percentage
of cases occurring in foreign-born persons during this period which increased
from 27% in 1991 to 50% in 2001. Overall, the number of cases in foreign-born
persons remained at approximately 7,000-8,000 each year, whereas the number
in U.S.-born persons substantially decreased from more than 19,000 in
1991 to less than 8,000 in 2001. |
