In this study, our aim was to use the Kulldorff's scan statistical analysis to explore the spatial, temporal, and space-time dynamics of TB at the county level in Qinghai. Our study analyzed the spatial, temporal, and space-time clusters of TB incidents at the county level in Qinghai, from 2009 to 2016, using the Kulldorff's retrospective scan statistic methods. The spatial and temporal clusters were statistically significant every year, and the spacetime scanning result indicated eight high-risk areas for TB incidents which were predominantly located in the southwest Qinghai.	./cache/cord-253171-l56qcbat.txt	./txt/cord-253171-l56qcbat.txt
