Philadelphia TB Epidemiology: Risk Factors

  • HIV positive serostatus

–11% of Philadelphia TB cases were HIV positive 3, compared with 1.2% of the general Philadelphia population 1 and 8.6%* of all TB cases in the nation (all ages) 4

* Reporting areas missing HIV data include: California, Georgia, Hawaii, Massachusetts, Vermont, Federated States of Micronesia and U.S. Virgin Islands

  • Substance Abuse (injecting drug use, non injecting

drug use and alcohol abuse)

–24% of Philadelphia TB cases were using injecting, non injecting illicit drugs and/or abusing alcohol at time of diagnosis 3 –Nationally, 12.5% of TB cases were using injecting, non injecting illicit drugs and/or abusing alcohol 4

Philadelphia TB Epidemiology: Risk Factors (2)

  • Homelessness

–5% of cases were homeless at the time of diagnosis or had a history of homelessness 3, compared with 1.2% of the Philadelphia population 2 –Nationally, 5.5% of TB cases were or had a history of homelessness 4

  • Residence in Correctional Facilities

–1.7% of Philadelphia TB cases either were a resident in a correctional facility3, or had a history of incarceration compared with 0.5% of the Philadelphia population 2 –The national rate among TB cases is 4.1% 4

  • Residence in Long-term Care Facilities

–3% of Philadelphia TB cases were either residing in or had a history of residence in long term care facilities (i.e. nursing homes, drug treatment facilities)3 compared with 0.5% of the Philadelphia population 2 –The national rate among TB cases is 2.6% 4

Conclusion

  • The demographics of TB in Philadelphia have

changed considerably in the past few years

  • While the number of TB cases has dropped over

the past few years, the proportion of cases that are foreign born continues to rise

  • Drug resistance is emerging as a challenge in

managing TB in Philadelphia

  • We expect both of these trends to continue
