1M. bovis cases from 2004 to 2017 were defined predominantly by spoligotyping results or by microbiologic expertise. M. bovis cases from 2018 to 2022 were defined using a whole genome sequencing-based lineage. Data from 2004 to 2022 excludes disease caused by Bacillus Calmette-Guérin M. bovis.
2Persons born in the United States, certain U.S. territories, or elsewhere to at least one U.S. citizen parent are categorized as U.S.-born. All other persons are categorized as non-U.S.–born.
3This column reports all genotyped M. bovis cases, including cases in persons for whom origin of birth is unknown.
