Summary of report with Figure 1, a vertical bar graph, shows a comparison of the number of cases in 2024 and 2025 by week of symptom onset. The 4 most recent weeks of data are marked as incomplete. This year has exceeded the number of cases reported from last year in all cases except for weeks 21, and 31-48. Weeks 49-52 are considered incomplete.

Figure 2 shows a line graph charting the number of cases diagnosed going back 10 years. There are two horizontal dashed lines going across the entire length of time. The bottom dashed line is the threshold for the projected baseline number of cases, and the dashed line above it is the projected epidemic threshold. The current wave of cases exceeded the epidemic threshold back in Feb. 2024 and has remained above it until week 49.

Summary of report with Figure 1, a vertical bar graph, shows a comparison of the number of cases in 2024 and 2025 by week of symptom onset. The 4 most recent weeks of data are marked as incomplete. This year has exceeded the number of cases reported from last year in all cases except for weeks 21, and 31-42. Weeks 43-46 are considered incomplete.

Figure 2 shows a line graph charting the number of cases diagnosed going back 10 years. There are two horizontal dashed lines going across the entire length of time. The bottom dashed line is the threshold for the projected baseline number of cases, and the dashed line above it is the projected epidemic threshold. The current wave of cases exceeded the epidemic threshold back in Feb. 2024 and has remained above it ever since, but as of this week's report it is nearly touching to the epidemic threshold!

Summary of report with Figure 1, a vertical bar graph, shows a comparison of the number of cases in 2024 and 2025 by week of symptom onset. The 4 most recent weeks of data are marked as incomplete. This year has exceeded the number of cases reported from last year in all cases except for weeks 21, and 31-35. Weeks 36-39 are considered incomplete.

Figure 2 shows a line graph charting the number of cases diagnosed going back 10 years. There are two horizontal dashed lines going across the entire length of time. The bottom dashed line is the threshold for the projected baseline number of cases, and the dashed line above it is the projected epidemic threshold. The current wave of cases exceeded the epidemic threshold back in Feb. 2024 and has remained above it ever since.
