Abstract

We report progress in the European Union/European Economic Area (EU/EEA) towards the Sustainable Development Goal target for tuberculosis (TB) and for the associated global/regional targets. The TB notification rate and the number of TB deaths declined since 2015 but, if current trends continue, the EU/EEA will not reach the 2030 targets. Performance on treatment initiation targets declined sharply during 2020–2021, while the percentage of TB cases with successful treatment outcomes remains low, at 47.9% of the multidrug-resistant TB cases.
