Figure 2-203. Incidence rates of TB in health care workers, 1994-2000.The TB incidence rate in health care workers declined from 5.4 per 100,000 workers in 1994 to 3.7 in 2000. (Note: The TB incidence rate for each year was computed using the number of health care workers as the denominator. This number was obtained from the U.S. Census Bureau's Current Population Survey for each year.)
