The increasing absolute notifications and rates notwithstanding, there is a
tendency towards stabilization of overall rates and decline in new smear
positive case notification rates since 2004 (Figure 4.2.2). These findings are
consistent with apparent decline in TB cases globally 25 .
4.2.2: Estimated Prevalence, incidence and death rates
Relative to MDG targets and basing on 1990 baseline as stipulated in the
Stop TB Partnership operationalisation of the MDG targets, estimated regional
TB prevalence, incidence and mortality rates have increased and are unlikely
to be achieved by 2015 based on current trends (Figure 4.2.2)
However, according to the WHO Global TB Report for 2008, by the end of
2006, six countries 26 had already halted and started to reverse overall and
smear positive TB incidence as specified in the core MDG targets.
A further 6 countries 27 had already halted and started to reverse estimated TB
prevalence, while four countries, namely, Angola, Comoros, Sao Tome &
Principe and Seychelles had already halted and started to reverse death rates
(Table 4.2.2)
