Using population
provisional estimates from Census 2011, the number of people diagnosed for TB
in these nine states has been estimated as about 1.58 millions of the persons
in these nine states in the year 2011.
This is the minimal (lower bound) of the effected persons by TB in these
states of India. On working backwards,
one can say that TB prevalence in these states is about 0.27%. Minimum TB Burden in Uttar
Pradesh and Bihar states cross one million persons and it is about 70% of the total
burden of these nine states.
If one assumes the average prevalence rate of these nine states as
the prevalence rate in India, the minimum number of persons effected by this
disease in India would be around 3.26 millions.
