| Value | Year | |
|---|---|---|
| Latest | 110% | 2024 |
| Five years earlier | 74% | 2019 |
| Ten years earlier | 67% | 2014 |
| Highest | 110% | 2024 |
| Lowest | 51% | 2000 |
| Average since 2015 | 76.5% | 2015–2024 |
| First recorded | 51% | 2000 |
Over five years it is up 36 percentage points from 74% in 2019. Since 2000 it is up 59 percentage points from 51% in 2000.
In 2024, Bulgaria's tuberculosis case detection rate (%, all forms) rose 35 percentage points on 2023 (from 75% to 110%).
Across the 23 yearly changes before that (2001 to 2023), the average change was +1.04 percentage points and a typical year strayed about 0.56 percentage points from that (the standard deviation). This year's change was 60.4 standard deviations above that average, so it was unusually large compared with the rest of the record.
On record, the biggest yearly rise was 35 percentage points in 2024. The numbers show how large and when, not why; for the cause, look at what happened in that country in those years.
From 2015 to 2024 the straight-line trend is upward, about 2.71 percentage points a year. A straight line explains 46% of the movement over 10 observed years.
Worked out from the yearly values above. How the checks work: standard deviation, z-scores and straight-line trends.
In 2024, Bulgaria had the 2nd highest value of the 191 economies reporting that year. Higher is not always better: for some indicators the lowest value is the one to aim for. See the full ranking.

Tuberculosis case detection rate (all forms) is the number of new and relapse tuberculosis cases notified to WHO in a given year, divided by WHO's estimate of the number of incident tuberculosis cases for the same year, expressed as a percentage. Estimates for all years are recalculated as new information becomes available and techniques are refined, so they may differ from those published previously.
Regional and income-group figures are computed by the World Bank as a weighted average.
