New York City struggling to contain rising tuberculosis cases
The city has confirmed about 500 cases of active tuberculosis so far this year, an increase of roughly 20 percent from the same time last year, according to internal preliminary data reviewed by POLITICO. That rate would make it the worst year in a decade.
That was magnified by the arrival of more than 100,000 migrants to New York City since spring 2022.
