Description:

After South Korea raised its infectious disease alert to the highest level in response to coronavirus disease emergence, tuberculosis notification during the first 18 weeks of 2020 decreased significantly from the same period for each year during 2015-2019. Adequate measures to diagnose, control, and prevent tuberculosis need to be maintained.
