Surveillance and disease data for tuberculosis
Surveillance is a crucial component in the control and elimination of TB in the European Union and European Economic Area. An accurate overview of the TB situation enables the strengths of TB control to be identified and the remaining challenges to be addressed. Together with the World Health Organization’s Regional Office for Europe, ECDC collects and disseminates TB surveillance data for the European region.
Surveillance reports
The annual TB Surveillance Report presents the key findings on TB trends and an overview of the TB situation in the European Region.
Disease data from ECDC Surveillance Atlas
The Surveillance Atlas of Infectious Diseases is a tool that interacts with the latest available data about a number of infectious diseases. The interface allows users to interact and manipulate the data to produce a variety of tables and maps.
TB Surveillance Network
European Tuberculosis Surveillance Network
The network aims to maintain and further develop surveillance activities and thereby contribute to the international progress both in the TB epidemiology and laboratory fields.
