What This TB Figure Means
This game compares the estimated incidence of tuberculosis.
- Incidence measures new and relapse cases arising in a year, scaled to population.
- The figure reflects diagnosis capacity, transmission, treatment gaps, and the social conditions TB thrives in.
- TB is as much a housing, poverty, and public-health systems story as it is a medical one.
Tuberculosis is one of the clearest examples of disease burden shadowing inequality.
