What This TB Death Figure Means
This game compares deaths due to tuberculosis per 100,000 people.
- This is a mortality figure, not just a case count.
- High death rates usually reflect treatment gaps, late diagnosis, and broader health-system failure.
- A country can reduce incidence slowly but still cut deaths if care works; the reverse is also true.
Tuberculosis death is where disease burden stops being abstract and becomes a systems verdict.
