For New York City from 1978 to 1990, plotting the 3-year running averages of citywide new tuberculosis cases against the middle year yielded an S-shaped curve, with the inflection point at 1983 between early slow and late rapid rise. The inflection in the S curve appears to be associated with hierarchical establishment of secondary epicenters, and the phase of rapid rise in new cases seems to be associated with spatial diffusion from both the primary and secondary epicenters
