If a person with disease enters in usa E.g T.b what will happen to incidence and prevalence?

HY question was a pt from india came to usa had ppd test with induration of 10 and then it reduced to 5 what will happen to incidence and prevalance?

a new case= incidence will go up.

old cases+ new cases= prevalence, so prevalence will go up
