结核病是热带国家（特别是印度尼西亚）仍然存在的热带疾病之一。本研究旨在调查2019年新冠肺炎大流行之前和期间结核病的最新流行病学情况。
数据收集自东爪哇卫生官员提供的《2019年和2020年东爪哇卫生概况》。通过统计软件SPSS和用于地理地图解读的QGIS应用程序对数据进行提取和分析。
本研究表明，2019年结核病总病例数为606,985例，而2020年降至384,752例。2019年结核病发病率为每10万人口224.98例，而2020年为每10万人口134.58例。2019年结核病病例数最多的省份是西爪哇，有143,935例，2020年也是该省，有90,905例。结核病病例数最少的省份是北加里曼丹，2019年有2,113例，2020年有985例。2019年结核病发病率最高的是雅加达，为每10万人口443.47例，而2020年是巴布亚，为每10万人口279.92例。2019年发病率最低的是巴厘省，为每10万人口102.72例，2020年为每10万人口67.43例。
与新冠肺炎大流行期间（2020年）相比，新冠肺炎大流行之前（2019年）结核病病例有所减少。
