| 1. Per 100,000 population.
2. The large decrease in 1979 occurred because late effects
of tuberculosis (e. g., bronchiectasis or fibrosis) and pleurisy
with effusion (without mention of cause) are no longer included
in tuberculosis deaths.
3. Preliminary data obtained from National Center for Health
Statistics (NCHS) National Vital Statistics Reports, Vol.
47, No. 25, October 5, 1999.
Ellipses indicate data not available.
Note: Case data after 1974 are not comparable to prior years
due to changes in the surveillance case definitions which
became effective in 1975.
