The number of tuberculosis cases reported in correctional facilities dropped 66 percent from 1994 to 2012. From a high of 1,117 cases in 1994, reported cases dropped to only 384 in 2012. Despite this drop, the percentage of total tuberculosis cases that correctional facilities account for has remained relatively stable at around 4 percent.
