Slide 21. Primary Isoniazid Resistance in U.S.-born
vs. Foreign-born Persons, United States, 1993–2004.
This graph shows primary isoniazid resistance in U.S.-born vs. foreign-born
persons. The percentage of isoniazid resistance (based on initial
isolates from persons with no prior history of TB) was approximately
two times higher among foreign-born persons than among U.S.-born
persons. In foreign-born persons, the percentage declined from
12.3% in 1993 to 10.4% in 2004, including a drop below 10% in 2001.
In U.S.-born persons, the percentage decreased from 6.8% in 1993
to 4.0% in 2002, and then increased to 4.4% in 2003 and 4.5% in
2004. |
