Notes: The global estimate and the estimates for the 22 high-burden countries were calculated using the mortality and population data provided in the report. All other country estimates are shown to two significant figures. Estimates for Afghanistan and Pakistan are provisional, pending further analyses and data collection in 2010. Does not include deaths among people with both TB and HIV.

Definitions: Tuberculosis: A bacterial infection caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis. The disease usually affects the lungs but can spread to other parts of the body in serious cases. An individual can become infected with TB when another person who has active TB coughs, sneezes, or spits. Not all people who become infected with TB will develop symptoms. Those who do not become ill are referred to as having latent TB and cannot spread the disease to others.
