Tóm tắt :

This is the ninth report launched jointly by the European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control (ECDC) and the WHO Regional Office for Europe following on from reports under the EuroTB project, established in 1996. Tuberculosis (TB) continues to be a major public health challenge in the WHO European Region. According to the latest estimates, there were around 323 000 incident TB cases and 32 000 deaths in the Region in 2015, mostly in eastern and central European countries. Overall, 85% of the annual incidence TB cases and 91% of TB deaths are located in the 18 high-priority countries implementing the End TB Strategy in the regional context of the WHO European Region. The WHO European Region is the area most affected by multidrug-resistant tuberculosis (MDR-TB) in the entire world. Of the 10 countries in the world with the highest burden of MDR-TB, nine are in the Region. In 2015, estimated percentages of MDR among new and previously treated TB cases in the Region were 16% and 48% respectively, while reported percentages were 18.3% and 47.4%, indicating that overall the MDR-TB surveillance system is working well within the Region. v, 150 p.
