The world’s populations are thought to be infected with tuberculosis and 9.6% of people age between 15-59 are infected. The distribution of tuberculosis is not uniform across the globe; about 80% of the population in many Asian and African countries test positive in tuberculin tests, while only 5?10% of the U.S. population test positive. In Korea, approximately 34,157 people are infected and Korea’s TB incidence and mortality rates have been reported to be No.1 among OCED countries. |
