BACKGROUND: In Canada, tuberculosis (TB) rates are at a historic low, with the remaining risk concentrated in a few vulnerable population subgroups.
OBJECTIVES: To describe the epidemiology of TB in the Canadian province of Ontario and to characterise risk factors associated with transmission events, identified using genetic typing techniques.
DESIGN: Retrospective analysis of 2186 culture-positive TB cases between August 2007 and December 2011. Temporal trends and risk of spatiotemporal and genotypic clustering were evaluated using Poisson and logistic regression models.
RESULTS: Being in a spatiotemporal cluster was associated with Aboriginal status (odds ratio [OR] 3.63, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.23-10.71). Cases in genotypic clusters were more likely to report homelessness as a risk factor (adjusted OR [aOR] 2.92, 95%CI 1.74-4.90) or be male (aOR 1.35, 95%CI 1.09-1.68), and were less likely to be aged ≥ 65 years (aOR 0.63, 95%CI 0.49-0.82), foreign-born (aOR 0.32, 95%CI 0.24-0.43) or Aboriginal (aOR 0.40, 95%CI 0.16-0.99). The Beijing lineage had an annual rate of increase of almost 10% (P = 0.047), and was associated with genotypic clustering (aOR 2.84, 95%CI 2.19-3.67).
CONCLUSION: Genotypic data suggest that disease clusters are smaller, but far more common, than would be estimated using spatiotemporal clustering.
