Analysis of Tuberculosis Epidemiological Distribution Characteristics in Fujian Province, China, 2005-2021: Spatial-Temporal Analysis Study
The TB incidence trend decreased annually in Fujian Province. TB cases distributed commonly in the male population, middle-aged and older people, and farmers. Etiologically positive cases are still the main source of Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection. TB incidence is higher in the cities with a developed economy and large population in the southeast. TB control should be strengthened in these populations and areas, such as via early screening of cases and management of confirmed cases.
