The forecasted data for new extrapulmonary tuberculosis cases in Kenya from 2024 to 2028 shows a consistent downward trend. Starting with 11.1 thousand cases in 2024, there is a year-on-year decrease, reaching 10.35 thousand by 2028. This indicates a gradual yet steady reduction in new cases. The annual percentage decrease suggests an improving situation, potentially due to enhanced healthcare strategies and interventions.
Looking ahead, it’s crucial to monitor factors such as healthcare access improvements, vaccination rates, public health initiatives, and socio-economic changes that could influence these trends. Continued focus on TB control programs, especially targeting extrapulmonary tuberculosis, will be essential in sustaining and accelerating this positive trajectory.
