In 2023, the total new and relapse tuberculosis cases in Canada were observed at 1.88 thousand. The forecast data from 2024 to 2028 shows a gradual increase, with projected cases growing slightly from 1.89 thousand in 2024 to 1.92 thousand in 2028. Year-on-year growth remains minimal, indicating stability in tuberculosis case trends over the forecast period.
Key forecast trends to watch for include:
- An average annual increase, albeit slight, noticeable in the cases leading up to 2028.
- Particular attention should be paid to policy changes or public health initiatives that could impact these numbers positively or negatively.
- Emerging technologies and treatment protocols which might significantly alter future forecasts.
