The forecast for tuberculosis prevalence in Canada from 2024 to 2028 shows a gradual decline, starting at 5.7 cases per hundred thousand persons in 2024, remaining steady through 2025, then decreasing to 5.6 in 2026 and 5.5 in 2027 and 2028. This marks a year-on-year decline of approximately 1.8% from 2025 to 2026 and 1.8% from 2026 to 2027, with no change from 2024 to 2025 or from 2027 to 2028. The Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) is anticipated to reflect this downward trend over the next five years.
Future trends to watch include advancements in healthcare technologies, public health interventions, and the impact of immigration policies, which could influence the prevalence of tuberculosis in Canada. Close monitoring of these factors will be crucial for ongoing public health strategies.
