Number of TB cases, HIV+ TB cases, and TB cases with missing HIV status, in the San Francisco homeless and non-homeless populations.

Over time, HIV status reporting has improved among the homeless, while it has remained at low levels, and almost constant, among the non-homeless (third column under each population category). At the same time, the percentage of HIV+ TB cases has increased among the homeless, but it has slightly declined among the non-homeless (second column under each population category). To compare against the CDC estimates for 2005 (18), related numbers from the SFDPH TBCP data are also provided for that year.
