Of which, 55.8% are new sputum positive cases and males were more affected than females. The age group of 35-44 years and 45-54 years is more prone to tuberculosis bacteria. Children below 14 years are less susceptible. We did not find any TB patient with HIV infection. The population attributable risk is 29.89%.
