The number of new and relapse tuberculosis cases in the US is on a declining trend. In 2023, there were approximately 7.40 thousand cases. From the forecasted data, the number of cases is expected to decrease year-on-year by around 5% annually, achieving a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of -5.5% from 2024 to 2028. This consistent decline suggests ongoing advancements in public health measures and effective tuberculosis management and treatment strategies.

Future trends to watch for:

Continued enhancement of tuberculosis prevention and treatment programs could further accelerate the decline in case numbers.
Potential impacts of changes in healthcare policies and funding on tuberculosis control efforts.
Demographic shifts and emerging health threats that could influence tuberculosis prevalence and response strategies.
