Abstract:
The purpose of this paper was to monitor the epidemiological aspects of tuberculosis in adult patients in Romania vs. the
Republic of Moldova between 2000 and 2015. For the appropriate analysis of data obtained, we used comparative statistical
methods, we determined primary statistical indicators and we applied the similarity metric method. The study showed a clear
improvement of the specific indicators which however are insufficient in terms of the World Health Organisation (WHO)
strategies requirements.
