What is the mortality rate for tuberculosis?

The mortality rate of tuberculosis in China is about 0.15-0.20 per 100,000 people. If tuberculosis is diagnosed, it is recommended to visit a specialized hospital and undergo standardized treatment.
Tuberculosis is caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection of the lungs, and standardized treatment is needed after infection to completely eliminate Mycobacterium tuberculosis. 2015-2020, the mortality rate of tuberculosis-infected patients in China is between 0.15-0.20 per 100,000, which is equivalent to a probability of one in a million, and the mortality rate is relatively low.
Therefore, there is no need to panic after being infected with TB, go to a specialized hospital in time and be treated under the guidance of a specialist.
The treatment program is usually a combination of isoniazid, rifampicin, pyrazinamide and ethambutol, and the medication should not be stopped at will during the treatment process. After standardized treatment, the patient can usually recover, but the patient still needs to pay attention to exercise after the cure to strengthen the body’s resistance and reduce the risk of recurrence.
