TB Making A Comeback In US

The Daily Mail reports: "Tuberculosis makes a comeback in the US with children most at risk, CDC warns." The article relates that TB rates had declined from 1993 to 2020 to a low of 2.2 cases per 100,000 persons, but has since started climbing. Per the article, "[t]he CDC reported 8,300 new TB cases in America last year. This is up from 7,874 the year prior, a 29 percent increase." It further noted that "[y]oung people were affected most, with cases among people 15 to 24 increasing 23 percent, the CDC said in its Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report." Also, "[a]lmost three-quarters of all new TB cases in the US in 2022 were detected in people who were not born in the country."
