Abstract

We observed shifting trends in tuberculosis (TB) epidemiology in the EU/EEA between 2019 and 2023. In 2023, TB notifications among people of foreign origin increased by 24.6% after decreasing between 2019 and 2020. The majority originated from African and East Mediterranean regions, with a 316.4% upsurge in TB among Ukrainians in 2022-23. Rifampicin-resistant/multidrug-resistant TB increased by ≥ 60% in 2019-23, mainly among Ukrainians. Rapid response to shifting epidemiological patterns is crucial for efficient TB prevention and control within the EU/EEA.

欧盟/欧洲经济区不断变化的结核病动态：2019年至2023年外籍人群的地理和耐药趋势

我们观察到2019年至2023年欧盟/欧洲经济区结核病流行病学的变化趋势。在2019年至2020年期间下降之后，2023年外籍人群的结核病通报增加了24.6%。大多数病例来自非洲和东地中海地区，2022-23年乌克兰结核病病例激增316.4%。2019-23年，耐利福平/耐多药结核病增加了60%以上，主要发生在乌克兰。对不断变化的流行病学模式作出快速反应对于在欧盟/欧洲经济区内有效预防和控制结核病至关重要。
