Data in parentheses are 95% credible intervals. In the private sector, estimates are shown under different assumptions for the average duration of treatment, ranging from 3 months to 9 months. In the public sector, the total number of cases registered for treatment by the Revised National TB Control Programme in 2014 are shown. In the private sector, not all patients receiving tuberculosis treatment might genuinely have tuberculosis: the figures are adjusted for potential overdiagnosis in the private sector.
