Supplementary files used in Web Annex C of the 2023 edition of the WHO guidance document on TB surveillance
The tb_register.csv and laboratory_register.csv files are based on the Link Plus (https://www.cdc.gov/cancer/npcr/tools/registryplus/lp.htmsimulation) test data files. They were modified extensively to simulate TB data files commonly found in many low income countries.
The tb_deduplication.csv file was created specifically by the WHO Global Tuberculosis Programme for the purpose of deduplication exercises.
