Sino-Singapore health expert: my country’s tuberculosis epidemic presents the characteristics of “three excesses and one serious” In 2022, the estimated number of new tuberculosis patients in my country is 748,000 (780,000 in 2021), and the estimated incidence of tuberculosis is 52/100,000. Among the 30 countries with high tuberculosis burden, my country ranks third, accounting for 7.1% of the global incidence.
