Preface
The Summary of Notifiable Infectious Diseases and Condition—United States, 2013 (hereafter referred to as the summary) contains the official statistics, in tabular and graphic form, for the reported occurrence of nationally notifiable infectious diseases and conditions in the United States for 2013. Unless otherwise noted, data are final totals for 2013 reported as of June 30, 2014. These statistics are collected and compiled from reports sent by U.S. state and territory, New York City, and District of Columbia health departments to the National Notifiable Diseases Surveillance System (NNDSS), which is operated by CDC in collaboration with the Council of State and Territorial Epidemiologists (CSTE). This summary is available at http://www.cdc.gov/mmwr/mmwr_nd/index.html. This site also includes summary publications from previous years.
The Highlights section presents noteworthy epidemiologic and prevention information for 2013 for selected infectious diseases and conditions and additional information to aid in the interpretation of surveillance and infectious diseases- and conditions-trend data. Part 1 contains tables showing incidence data for the nationally notifiable infectious diseases and conditions reported during 2013; these tables do not include rows for conditions with zero cases reported in 2013.* The tables provide the number of cases reported to CDC for 2013 and the distribution of cases by month, geographic location, and patients' demographic characteristics (e.g., age, sex, race, and ethnicity). Part 1 also includes a table with the reported incidence of notifiable diseases during 2003–2013 and a table enumerating deaths associated with specified notifiable infectious diseases and conditions reported to CDC's National Center for Health Statistics (NCHS) during 2005–2011. Part 2 contains graphs and maps that depict summary data for selected notifiable infectious diseases and conditions described in tabular form in Part 1. Historical notifiable disease data, annotated as Part 3 in previous releases of this summary will no longer be included beginning with this report. Historical notifiable disease data during 1944–2012 are available online in previous years' summaries (http://www.cdc.gov/mmwr/mmwr_nd). Efforts are underway to post finalized data for years 2004–2012 on CDC WONDER (http://wonder.cdc.gov). The Selected Reading section presents general and disease-specific references for notifiable infectious diseases and conditions. These references provide additional information on surveillance and epidemiologic concerns, diagnostic concerns, and infectious disease-control activities.
Comments and suggestions from readers are welcome. To increase the usefulness of future editions, comments regarding the current report and descriptions of how information is or could be used are invited. Comments should be e-mailed to NNDSSweb@cdc.gov with the following subject line: "Annual Summary".
Background
The infectious diseases and conditions designated by CSTE and CDC as nationally notifiable during 2013 are listed in this section. A notifiable infectious disease or condition is one for which regular, frequent, and timely information regarding individual cases is considered necessary for the prevention and control of the disease or condition. A brief history of the reporting of nationally notifiable infectious diseases and conditions in the United States is available at http://wwwn.cdc.gov/nndss/history.html. In 1961, CDC assumed responsibility for the collection of data on nationally notifiable diseases and deaths in 122 U.S. cities. Data are collected through NNDSS, which is neither a single surveillance system nor a method of reporting. Rather, it is a 'system of systems', which is coordinated by CDC at the national level across disease-specific programs in order to optimize data compilation, analysis, and dissemination of notifiable disease data. Monitoring surveillance data enables public health authorities to detect sudden changes in disease or condition occurrence and distribution, identify changes in agents and host factors, and detect changes in health-care practices. National level surveillance data are compiled from case notification reports of nationally notifiable infectious diseases and conditions submitted from the state, territory, and selected local health departments to CDC.
Cases are first identified through reports of infectious diseases and conditions from the local level to the state or territory. Legislation, regulation, or other rules in those jurisdictions require health-care providers, hospitals, laboratories, and others to provide information on reportable conditions to public health authorities or their agents. Case reporting at the local level protects the public's health by ensuring the proper identification and follow-up of cases. Public health workers ensure that persons who are already ill receive appropriate treatment; trace contacts who need vaccines, treatment, quarantine, or education; investigate and halt outbreaks; eliminate environmental hazards; and close premises where disease transmission is believed to be ongoing.
Although infectious disease and condition reporting is mandated at the state, territory, and local levels by legislation or regulation, state and territory notification to CDC is voluntary. Selected local, state, and territorial health departments voluntarily notify CDC about nationally notifiable infectious diseases and conditions; the data in these case notifications to CDC are obtained through the reportable disease and condition surveillance systems in place at the state and local levels. Case notification of nationally notifiable infectious diseases and conditions helps public health authorities monitor the effect of these diseases and conditions, measure the disease and condition trends, assess the effectiveness of control and prevention measures, identify populations or geographic areas at high risk, allocate resources appropriately, formulate prevention strategies, and develop public health policies.
The list of nationally notifiable infectious diseases and conditions is revised periodically. An infectious disease or condition might be added to the list as a new pathogen emerges, or a disease or condition might be removed as its incidence declines. Public health officials at state and territorial health departments collaborate with CDC staff in determining which infectious diseases and conditions should be considered nationally notifiable. CSTE, with input from CDC, makes recommendations annually for additions and deletions to the list. The list of infectious diseases and conditions considered reportable in each jurisdiction varies over time and across jurisdictions. Current and historic national public health surveillance case definitions used for classifying and enumerating cases consistently at the national level across reporting jurisdictions are available at http://wwwn.cdc.gov/nndss/conditions.

Data Sources
Provisional data on the reported occurrence of nationally notifiable infectious diseases and conditions are published weekly in MMWR throughout the year. After each reporting year, staff in state and territory health departments finalize reports of cases for that year with local or county health departments and reconcile the data with reports previously sent to CDC throughout the year. These data are compiled in final form in this summary, which represents the official and archival counts of cases for each year. The data in these reports are approved by the appropriate chief epidemiologist from each submitting state or territory before being published in this summary. Data published in MMWR Surveillance Summaries or other surveillance reports produced by CDC programs might differ from data reported in this summary because of differences in the timing of reports, the source of the data, or surveillance methodology.
Data in this summary were derived primarily from reports transmitted to CDC from health departments in the 50 states, five territories, New York City, and the District of Columbia (reporting jurisdictions). Data were reported for MMWR weeks 1–52, which correspond to the period for the week ending January 5, 2013 through the week ending December 28, 2013. More information regarding notifiable infectious diseases and conditions, including national surveillance case definitions, is available at http://wwwn.cdc.gov/nndss/conditions. Policies for reporting notifiable infectious disease and condition cases can vary by disease, condition, or reporting jurisdiction. The case-status categories used to determine which cases reported to NNDSS are published by infectious disease or condition and are listed in the publication criteria column of the 2013 NNDSS event code list (Exhibit).
For a report of a nationally notifiable disease or condition to publish in MMWR (formerly described as "print criteria", currently described as "publication criteria"), the reporting state or territory must have designated the infectious disease or condition reportable in their state or territory for the year corresponding to the year of report to CDC. After this criterion is met, the infectious disease- or condition-specific criteria listed in the Exhibit are applied. Where the Exhibit indicates that all reports will be published, this means that cases designated with unknown or suspect case confirmation status will be included in the counts along with probable and confirmed cases. Because CSTE position statements are not customarily finalized until July of each year, NNDSS data for newly added infectious diseases or conditions are not usually available from all reporting jurisdictions until January of the year following the approval of the CSTE position statement.
Final data for certain infectious diseases and conditions are derived from the surveillance records of the CDC program. Requests for further information regarding these data should be directed to the appropriate program.

Population estimates were obtained from the NCHS postcensal estimates of the resident population of the United States during April 1, 2010–July 1, 2012 (release date: June 13, 2013), by year, county, single year of age (range: 0 to ≥85 years), bridged-race (white, black or African American, American Indian or Alaska Native, Asian or Pacific Islander), Hispanic ethnicity (not Hispanic or Latino, Hispanic or Latino), and sex (Vintage 2012), prepared under a collaborative arrangement with the U.S. Census Bureau. Population estimates for states are available at http://www.cdc.gov/nchs/nvss/bridged_race/data_documentation.htm#vintage2012. Population estimates for Territories are from the 2012 U.S. Census Bureau International Data Base, available at http://www.census.gov/population/international/data/idb/informationGateway.php. The choice of population denominators for incidence reported in MMWR is based on the availability of census population data at the time of preparation for publication and the desire for consistent use of the same population data to compute incidence reported by different CDC programs.
Incidence in this summary was calculated as the number of reported cases for each infectious disease or condition divided by either the U.S. resident population for the specified demographic population or the total U.S. resident population, multiplied by 100,000. For Territories, incidence in this summary was calculated as the number of reported cases for each infectious disease or condition divided by either the Territorial resident population for the specified demographic population or the total Territorial resident population, multiplied by 100,000. When a nationally notifiable infectious disease or condition is associated with a specific age restriction, the same age restriction was applied to the population in the denominator of the incidence calculation. In addition, population data from states in which the disease or condition was not reportable or was not available are excluded from incidence calculations. Unless otherwise stated, disease totals for the United States do not include data for American Samoa, Guam, Puerto Rico, the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands, or the U.S. Virgin Islands.
Interpreting Data
The completeness of information on notifiable infectious diseases and conditions was highly variable and related to the disease or condition being reported (1–8). Incidence data in this summary are presented by the MMWR week and year (http://wwwn.cdc.gov/nndss/document/MMWR_Week_overview.pdf) assigned by the state or territorial health department, with some exceptions, including human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) (presented by date of diagnosis), tuberculosis (presented by date CDC surveillance staff verified that the case met the criteria in the national surveillance case definition), domestic arboviral diseases (presented by date of illness onset), and varicella deaths (presented by date of death). Data were reported by the jurisdiction of the person's "usual residence" at the time of disease or condition onset (http://wwwn.cdc.gov/nndss/document/11-SI-04.pdf). For certain nationally notifiable infectious diseases and conditions, surveillance data are reported independently to various CDC programs. For this reason, surveillance data reported by other CDC programs might vary from data reported in this summary because of differences in 1) the date used to aggregate data (e.g., date of report or date of disease or condition occurrence), 2) the timing of reports, 3) the source of the data, 4) surveillance case definitions, and 5) policies regarding case jurisdiction (i.e., which jurisdiction should submit the case notification to CDC). In addition, the "date of disease occurrence" of conditions might vary. For infectious diseases, the meaning of the "date of disease occurrence" varies across jurisdictions and by disease and might be a date of symptom or disease onset, diagnosis, laboratory result, reporting of a case to a jurisdiction, or notification of a case to CDC.
Data reported in this summary are useful for analyzing infectious disease or condition trends and determining relative infectious disease or condition numbers. However, reporting practices affect how these data should be interpreted. Infectious disease and condition reporting is likely incomplete, and completeness might vary depending on the infectious disease or condition and reporting state. The degree of completeness of data reporting might be influenced by the diagnostic facilities available, control measures in effect, public awareness of a specific infectious disease or condition, and the resources and priorities of state and local officials responsible for controlling infectious diseases and conditions, and for public health surveillance. Finally, factors such as changes in methods for public health surveillance, introduction of new diagnostic tests, or discovery of new infectious disease or condition entities can cause changes in reporting that are independent of the actual incidence of infectious disease or condition.
Public health surveillance data are published for selected racial/ethnic populations because these characteristics can be risk markers for certain notifiable infectious diseases or conditions. Race and ethnicity data also can be used to highlight populations for focused prevention programs. However, caution must be used when drawing conclusions from reported race and ethnicity. Different racial/ethnic populations might have different patterns of access to health care, potentially resulting in data that are not representative of actual infectious disease or condition incidence among specific population groups. In addition, not all race and ethnicity data are collected or reported uniformly for all infectious diseases and conditions; for example, the recommended standard for classifying a person's race or ethnicity is based on self-reporting. However, this procedure might not always be followed.
The standardized categories used for classifying race and ethnicity have changed over time, and the transition in implementation to the newest race and ethnicity standard has taken varying amounts of time for different nationally notifiable infectious diseases and conditions. All data submitted to CDC, even those data using the new 1997 standard, are converted to the 1977 standard. Until CDC can accept data using the 1997 OMB standard across all conditions and across all reporting jurisdictions, the data will be converted to the 1977 standard. The current standard is the 1997 Office of Management and Budget (OMB) race and ethnicity standard, which includes the collection of multiple races per person; this should have been implemented by federal programs beginning January 1, 2003. CDC's Tuberculosis, HIV/AIDS, and Sexually Transmitted Diseases programs have implemented the 1997 OMB Standard. In addition, the National Electronic Disease Surveillance System Base System (NBS), which was in development in 1999 and by 2003 was in production by the first state, implemented the 1997 OMB standard. However, progress has been slow in updating the national case notification messaging standard across all reporting jurisdictions to enable CDC to aggregate data collected using the 1997 OMB standard for all nationally notifiable infectious diseases and conditions. Most of the case notification data submitted to CDC are in National Electronic Telecommunications System for Surveillance (NETSS) data format, which uses the 1977 OMB standard, in which race and ethnicity were collected as one variable.
Surveillance data reported to NNDSS are in either individual case-specific form or summary form (i.e., aggregated data for a group of cases). Summary data often lack demographic information (e.g., race); therefore, the demographic-specific rates presented in this summary might be underestimated.
Transitions in NNDSS Data Collection
A total of 57 public health departments (50 state health departments, two city health departments [New York City and the District of Columbia] and five territorial health departments) submitted to CDC notifiable infectious diseases and conditions data for inclusion in this summary. Data collection in NNDSS has undergone various transitions over time. Before 1990, data were reported to CDC as cumulative counts rather than as individual case reports. In 1990, using NETSS, states began electronically capturing and reporting individual cases to CDC without personal identifiers. In 2001, CDC launched the National Electronic Disease Surveillance System (NEDSS), now a component of the Public Health Information Network (PHIN), to promote the use of data and information system standards that advance the development of efficient, integrated, and interoperable surveillance information systems at the local, state, territorial, and national levels. Additional information concerning NEDSS is available at http://wwwn.cdc.gov/nndss/nedss.html.
One of the objectives of NEDSS is to improve the accuracy, completeness, and timeliness of disease reporting at the local, state, territorial, and national levels. A major feature of NEDSS is its ability to capture data already in electronic form (e.g., electronic laboratory results, which are needed for case confirmation) rather than having to enter these data manually, as in NETSS. Certain public health surveillance information systems are NEDSS-compatible. In 1999, CDC initiated development of the NBS, which the first state began using in 2003. Since the NBS launch, states and commercial vendors have developed several other NEDSS-compatible systems.
As of August 2013, all 50 state health departments use NEDSS-compatible public health surveillance information systems: 32 (64%) use state- or vendor-developed systems and 18 (36%) use the CDC-developed NBS. In addition, New York City uses a vendor-developed system and the District of Columbia uses both NBS and a vendor-developed system. In September 2013, Guam began to use NBS selectively as part of the territory's transition plan to use the system for all reportable infectious diseases and conditions. At that time, the remaining territorial health departments were not using NEDSS-compatible systems.
In 2013, CDC began to conceptualize improvements to strengthen and modernize the technical infrastructure supporting NNDSS. In 2014, CDC and selected states began work on the NNDSS Modernization Initiative (NMI), a multiyear commitment to enhance NNDSS surveillance capabilities. An important benefit for public health decision making will be the ability to acquire higher quality data that are more comprehensive and timely. Through NMI, CDC and its state partners will increase the robustness of the NNDSS technological infrastructure so that it is based on interoperable, standardized data and data exchange mechanisms. Additional information is available at http://www.cdc.gov/nmi.
Method for Identifying which Nationally Notifiable Infectious Diseases and Conditions are Reportable
States and jurisdictions are sovereign entities. Reportable conditions are determined by laws and regulations of each state, territory, or local jurisdiction. Some infectious diseases and conditions deemed nationally notifiable by CSTE might not be designated as reportable in certain states or jurisdictions. Only data from reporting states, territories, and jurisdictions that designated the infectious disease or condition as reportable are included in the summary tables. This ensures the data displayed in this summary are from population-based surveillance efforts and are generally comparable across states, territories, and other jurisdictions. When a CSTE- and CDC-recommended nationally notifiable disease or condition is judged by state, territory, or other jurisdiction officials to be not reportable, an "N" indicator for "not reportable" is inserted in the table for the specified reporting state, territory, or jurisdiction and applicable year. Each year, the NNDSS Data Processing Team solicits information from each NNDSS reporting state, territory, and jurisdiction (all 50 U.S. states, the District of Columbia, New York City, and five U.S. territories) about infectious diseases and conditions that are mandated by state, territory, or jurisdiction laws or regulations to be nationally reportable.
Revised International Health Regulations
At its annual meeting in June 2007, CSTE approved a position statement that supports implementation of International Health Regulations (IHR) in the United States (9). CSTE approval followed the adoption of revised IHR in May 2005 by the World Health Assembly (10) that went into effect in the United States on July 18, 2007. This international legal instrument governs the role of the World Health Organization (WHO) and its member countries, including the United States, in identifying, responding to, and sharing information about events that might constitute a Public Health Emergency of International Concern (PHEIC). A PHEIC is an extraordinary event that constitutes a public health risk to other countries through international spread of disease and potentially requires a coordinated international response. All WHO member countries are required to notify WHO of a potential PHEIC. WHO makes the final determination about the existence of a PHEIC.
Health-care providers in the United States are required to report diseases, conditions, and outbreaks determined to be reportable by local, state, or territorial law or regulation. Additionally, all health-care providers should work with their local, state, or territorial health agencies to identify and report events occurring in their location that might constitute a PHEIC. U.S. state and territorial departments of health have agreed to report information about a potential PHEIC to the most relevant federal agency responsible for monitoring such an event. In the case of human infectious disease, the U.S. state or territorial departments of health will notify CDC through existing formal and informal reporting mechanisms (10). CDC will further analyze the event by use of the decision algorithm in Annex 2 of the IHR and notify the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) Secretary's Operations Center (SOC), as appropriate.
In the United States, HHS has the lead role in carrying out the IHR, in cooperation with multiple federal departments and agencies. When a potential PHEIC is identified, the United States has 48 hours to assess the risk of the reported event. If authorities determine that a potential PHEIC exists, the United States, as with all WHO member countries, has 24 hours to report the event to WHO. The HHS SOC is responsible for reporting a potential PHEIC to WHO.
An IHR decision algorithm (Annex 2 of the IHR) was developed to help countries determine whether an event should be reported. If any two of the following four questions are answered in the affirmative, then a potential PHEIC exists and WHO should be notified:
- Is the public health impact of the event serious?
- Is the event unusual or unexpected?
- Is there a significant risk of international spread?
- Is there a significant risk of international travel or trade restrictions?
The revised IHR reflects a conceptual shift from the use of a predefined disease list to a framework of reporting and responding to events on the basis of an assessment of public health criteria, including seriousness, unexpectedness, and international travel and trade implications. A PHEIC is an event that falls within those criteria (further defined in a decision algorithm in Annex 2 of the revised IHR). Any one of these four conditions always constitutes a PHEIC and do not require the use of the IHR decision instrument in Annex 2:
- severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS),
- smallpox,
- poliomyelitis caused by wild-type poliovirus, and
- human influenza caused by a new subtype.
Any other event requires the use of the decision algorithm to determine if it is a potential PHEIC. Examples of events that require the use of the decision instrument include, but are not limited to cholera, pneumonic plague, yellow fever, West Nile fever, viral hemorrhagic fevers, and meningococcal disease. Other biologic, chemical, or radiologic events might fit the decision algorithm and also must be reported to WHO.
Additional information concerning IHR is available at http://www.who.int/csr/ihr/en and http://www.cdc.gov/globalhealth/ihregulations.htm. CSTE also approved a position statement that added initial detections of novel influenza A virus infections to the list of nationally notifiable infectious diseases, beginning in January 2007 (11).

Highlights for 2013
Below are summary highlights for certain national notifiable diseases and conditions. Highlights are intended to assist in the interpretation of major occurrences that affect disease incidence or surveillance trends (e.g., outbreaks, vaccine licensure, or policy changes).
Domestic Arboviral Disease, Neuroinvasive and Nonneuroinvasive
In 2013, a total of 2,469 West Nile virus (WNV) disease cases were reported, including 1,267 cases of neuroinvasive disease (e.g., meningitis, encephalitis, and acute flaccid paralysis) and 119 deaths (1). WNV disease cases were reported from 47 states and the District of Columbia. Approximately half (51%) of the WNV neuroinvasive disease cases were reported from six states (California, Colorado, Illinois, North Dakota, Oklahoma, and Texas). The incidence of neuroinvasive disease declined substantially in 2013 (0.40 per 100,000 population) compared with 2012 (0.92 per 100,000 population) when a large multistate outbreak occurred (2). However, the incidence in 2013 was similar to that during 2004–2007 and was higher than that during 2008–2011.
After WNV, the next most commonly reported cause of neuroinvasive arboviral disease was La Crosse virus, followed by Jamestown Canyon virus, Powassan virus, and Eastern equine encephalitis virus. In 2013, more Jamestown Canyon virus cases (N = 22) were reported than in any previous year and included the first cases reported from eight states. This increase is likely related to the initiation of routine immunoglobulin M testing at CDC and suggests that the incidence of Jamestown Canyon virus infection might have been underestimated in previous years. Although rare, Eastern equine encephalitis virus disease remained the most severe arboviral disease, with a 50% case-fatality ratio for reported cases in 2013.

Babesiosis
Babesiosis is a disease caused by protozoan parasites of the genus Babesia that infect red blood cells. Babesia infection can range from asymptomatic to life threatening. Clinical manifestations might include fever, chills, other nonspecific influenza-like symptoms, and hemolytic anemia. Babesia parasites usually are tickborne, but can also be transmissible via blood transfusion or congenitally (1).
In 2013, 95% of cases were reported in residents of seven states (Connecticut, Massachusetts, Minnesota, New Jersey, New York, Rhode Island, and Wisconsin). The median age of patients was 62 years (range: <1–98 years); 65% were male, 32% were female, and the sex was unknown for 3%. Among the patients for whom data were available, 85% had symptom onset dates during June–August.

Botulism
Botulism is a severe paralytic illness caused by toxins produced by Clostridium botulinum. Exposure to the toxin can occur by ingestion (foodborne botulism), in situ production from C. botulinum colonization of either a wound (wound botulism) or the gastrointestinal tract (infant botulism and adult intestinal colonization botulism), or overdose of botulinum toxin used for cosmetic or therapeutic purposes (1). In 2013, a total of 152 cases of botulism reported, including 136 cases in infants, four foodborne cases, and 12 cases classified as other, including wound botulism. During 2013, no outbreaks (events with two or more cases) of foodborne botulism were reported.
All states maintain 24-hour telephone services for reporting of botulism and other public health emergencies. Health-care providers should report suspected botulism cases immediately to their state health departments. CDC maintains intensive surveillance for cases of botulism in the United States and provides consultation and antitoxin for suspected cases. State health departments can reach the CDC botulism duty officer on call 24 hours a day, 7 days a week via the CDC Emergency Operations Center (telephone: 770-488-7100).

Brucellosis
In 2013, 99 brucellosis cases were reported from 28 U.S. states and territories. The number of cases decreased 13% from 2012 to 2013.
Brucellosis is reportable in all states and territories and is also a nationally notifiable condition. According to the CDC/CSTE case classification and diagnostic lab criteria, probable cases are defined as those that have clinically compatible illness and are epidemiologically linked to a confirmed human or animal case, and/or have presumptive laboratory evidence of Brucella infection. This presumptive laboratory evidence can be indicated either by a total antibody titer of 1:160 by standard tube agglutination or Brucella microagglutination in at least one serum specimen obtained after symptom onset, or by detection of Brucella DNA in a clinical specimen by PCR assay. Confirmed cases must have definitive evidence of Brucella infection, either via culture and identification of Brucella from clinical specimens or a fourfold or greater rise in Brucella antibody titer between acute and convalescent phase serum specimens, obtained at least two weeks apart.
Chlamydia
In 2013, approximately 1.4 million cases of Chlamydia trachomatis infections were reported (1). During 2012–2013, the rate of reported chlamydia decreased 1.5% from 453.3 to 446.6 cases per 100,000 population,* representing the first time since national reporting began that the overall chlamydia rate has decreased. The rate among women decreased 2.4% (638.7 to 623.1 cases per 100,000 population) and the rate among men increased slightly (0.8%) (260.6 to 262.6). Decreases among women were primarily among young women; the rate among women aged 15–19 years decreased 8.7% (3,331.7 to 3,043.3 cases per 100,000 population). Chlamydial infections are usually asymptomatic and rates of reported cases are affected by the proportion of the population screened and the diagnostic test used. Consequently, increases in chlamydia case rates might reflect increases in incidence of infection, screening coverage, and use of more sensitive diagnostic tests. Likewise, decreases in chlamydia case rates might suggest decreases in incidence of infection or screening coverage.

Cholera
Cholera continues to be rare in the United States and is most often acquired during travel in countries where toxigenic Vibrio cholerae O1 or O139 is circulating (1‒3). Since epidemic cholera emerged in Haiti in October 2010, associated cases have been reported in the United States in travelers who have recently arrived from Hispaniola (2,3). Of the 14 cholera infections in 2013, a total of 13 were travel-associated, including nine with travel to Hispaniola (eight to Haiti and one to the Dominican Republic) and four to other cholera affected countries (including two with travel to Cuba). Cholera remains a global threat to health, particularly in areas with poor access to improved water and sanitation, such as Haiti and sub-Saharan Africa (4,5).

Coccidioidomycosis
Coccidioidomycosis (i.e., Valley Fever) is a fungal infection caused by inhalation of Coccidioides spp. spores that are present in the arid soil of the southwestern United States, California, and parts of Central and South America. Coccidioides was also recently identified in soil in south-central Washington, far north of its known range, in association with three cases of human disease (1,2). After a substantial increase during 1998–2011 (3) and a decrease of approximately 22% from 2011 to 2012, the incidence of reported coccidioidomycosis decreased by 47% from 2012 (17,802) to 2013 (9,438). This decrease was largely a result of a 55% decrease in Arizona, which reports the most cases of any state. California, which reports the second-highest number of cases, experienced a decrease of 27%.
Reasons for the overall decrease in reported cases are not known but might be related to changes in the environment or changes in the at-risk population. Much of the decrease in Arizona was likely related to a change in testing methods in December 2012 at a major commercial laboratory that reports approximately 70% of coccidioidomycosis cases in Arizona (4). Despite the recent decrease, morbidity associated with this disease and the number of reported cases remains considerable, particularly in Arizona (5,861 cases) and California (3,272 cases). Physicians should continue to maintain a high suspicion for acute coccidioidomycosis among patients with an influenza-like illness or pneumonia who live in or have traveled to areas in which the disease is endemic, and they should be aware of the possibility for coccidioidomycosis outside of its previously recognized geographic range.

Cryptosporidiosis
Although cryptosporidiosis affects persons in all age groups, cases are most frequently reported in children aged 1–4 years (1). A substantial increase in transmission of Cryptosporidium occurs during summer, coinciding with increased use of recreational water, which is a known risk factor for cryptosporidiosis. Cryptosporidium has emerged as the leading cause of reported recreational water-associated outbreaks and waterborne disease outbreaks overall (2). Transmission through recreational water is facilitated by the substantial number (108–109) of Cryptosporidium oocysts that can be shed in a single bowel movement (3), the extended time that oocysts can be shed (4), the low (≤10 oocysts) infectious dose (5), and the extreme tolerance of Cryptosporidium oocysts to chlorine (6). The increased reporting observed since 2005 continued; the rate of cryptosporidiosis increased 13% from 2012 to 2013. Furthermore, the proportion of probable cases has increased to 37% of all reported cases, primarily because of changes in the national case definition since 2011.
To reduce the burden of cryptosporidiosis associated with recreational water, enhanced prevention measures are needed. In the United States, pool codes are reviewed and approved by state or local officials; no federal agency regulates the design, construction, operation, and maintenance of treated aquatic venues. This lack of uniform national standards has been identified as a barrier to the prevention and control of outbreaks associated with treated recreational water. To provide support to state and local health departments, CDC led the development of the Model Aquatic Health Code (MAHC) (http://www.cdc.gov/mahc). This guidance document integrates the latest knowledge based on science and best practices with specific code language and explanatory materials covering the design, construction, operation, and maintenance of public swimming pools, spas, hot tubs, and other public aquatic facilities. Local and state agencies needing to create or update swimming pool and spa codes, rules, regulations, guidance, laws, or standards can use MAHC as a resource to protect public health while saving time and resources previously used to write or update code language.

Cyclosporiasis
In 2013, the largest number of outbreak-associated cyclosporiasis cases was reported to CDC since 1997, and the largest number of cyclosporiasis cases was reported since the first year of national surveillance for the disease in 1999 (1,2). Of the 784 reported cases in 2013, a total of 631 (80%) occurred during June–August and were classified as outbreak associated. At least two outbreaks linked to two different fresh produce vehicles (bagged salad mix and cilantro) imported from Mexico occurred during this period. Only 199 (32%) of the 631 outbreak-associated cases could be directly linked to either of the two outbreaks; the vehicle(s) of infection for two thirds of the laboratory-confirmed domestically acquired cases could not be determined. Advanced molecular detection methods for Cyclospora are needed to link cases of cyclosporiasis to each other and to particular vehicles and sources of infection.

Dengue
Dengue is an acute febrile illness characterized by myalgia, headache, leukopenia, and minor bleeding manifestations (1). Patients with severe dengue experience plasma leakage resulting in fluid accumulation, hemorrhage, and/or major organ impairment (e.g., liver failure, myocarditis, and impaired consciousness). An estimated 390 million dengue virus infections occurred worldwide in 2010, of which 96 million resulted in clinically apparent illness (2). With proper clinical management, the case-fatality rate of hospitalized dengue patients can be <0.5% (3). Dengue is endemic throughout the tropics, including in the U.S. territories of Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands. In 2013, dengue outbreaks occurred in Florida, Texas, and Puerto Rico.
In 2013, dengue epidemics occurred in the Americas and the Caribbean, including in Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands. As a result, the 794 travel-associated cases was higher than in previous years. Travelers of all age groups continued to be affected. In association with increased incidence of travel-associated dengue, local dengue outbreaks occurred in at least three states in 2013. A dengue outbreak in southern Texas that was associated with an ongoing epidemic in northern Mexico resulted in 53 detected dengue cases, of which half were locally acquired. In Florida, an outbreak in Martin and Saint Lucie counties resulted in 25 locally acquired cases. As with the Key West outbreak during 2009–2010 (4), the sole dengue virus-type (DENV) detected in Florida in 2013 was DENV-1; however, it was distinct from the virus responsible for the Key West outbreak, suggesting that an independent importation event led to the 2013 outbreak. A single locally acquired case was detected in Long Island, New York in late 2013.

Ehrlichiosis and Anaplasmosis
Ehrlichiosis and anaplasmosis are rickettsial tickborne diseases that have been notifiable since 1998. The number of reported cases of Ehrlichia chaffeensis in 2013 (N = 1,518) was greater than previous years for the third year in a row. Similarly, the annual number of reported cases of Ehrlichia ewingii in 2013 (N = 31) was greater for the fourth year in a row. The lonestar tick (Amblyomma americanum) transmits both of these Ehrlichia species to humans. In contrast, the number of reported cases of Anaplasma phagocytophilum in 2013 (N = 2,782) was similar to 2011 (N = 2,575) and 2012 (N = 2,389). The blacklegged tick (Ixodes scapularis) and the Western blacklegged tick (Ixodes pacificus) transmit A. phagocytophilum to humans. This difference in trends between ehrlichiosis and anaplasmosis might be a result of changes in the ecology of these tick vectors, interactions between humans, animals, and ticks, use of diagnostic assays, or reporting practices.
Giardiasis
Giardiasis is the most common enteric parasitic infection in the United States, infecting an estimated 1.2 million persons annually (1). Symptomatology is variable, but giardiasis is normally characterized by diarrhea, abdominal cramps, bloating, weight loss, and malabsorption; extraintestinal symptoms are possible (2). Infected persons can shed Giardia for several weeks, and recent studies indicate a potential for chronic sequelae from giardiasis (3). Giardia is endemic worldwide, including in the United States and is the most commonly diagnosed pathogen among travelers returning to the United States from other countries (4). Giardia is commonly detected in internationally adopted children screened in the United States; often, these children do not have gastrointestinal symptoms (5).
Giardia is transmitted through the fecal-oral route with the ingestion of Giardia cysts through the consumption of fecally contaminated water and food or through person-to-person (or, to a lesser extent, animal-to-person) transmission. Most information on giardiasis transmission comes from outbreak investigations; however, the overwhelming majority of reported giardiasis cases are not linked to known outbreaks. Among reported cases, <2% are documented as outbreak-associated (6). The relative contributions of person-to-person, animal-to-person, foodborne, and waterborne transmission to sporadic human giardiasis in the United States are not well understood. New epidemiologic studies are needed to understand transmission pathways and to identify effective public health prevention measures.
Until recently, no reliable serologic assays for Giardia have been available, and no population studies of Giardia seroprevalence have been conducted. With recent laboratory advances (7), such studies might now be feasible and would contribute substantially to understanding the prevalence of giardiasis in the United States. Enhanced genotyping methods would increase knowledge of the molecular epidemiology of Giardia, including elucidating species-specific sub-assemblages (8). These tools, combined with traditional epidemiology and surveillance, would improve understanding of giardiasis risk factors, enable researchers to identify outbreaks by linking cases currently classified as sporadic infections, and provide risk factor information needed to inform prevention strategies.

Gonorrhea
The national rate of reported gonorrhea cases reached an historic low in 2009. However, from 2009 to 2012, the rate increased 8.8%, from 98.1 to 106.7 cases per 100,000 population.* In 2013, the gonorrhea rate decreased slightly (0.6%) to 106.1 cases. Although trends varied by region, the decrease during 2012–2013 was observed primarily among women. Nationwide, the gonorrhea rate among men increased 4.3%, and the rate among women decreased 5.1%. The increase among men compared with the decrease among women suggests either increased transmission or increased case ascertainment (e.g., through increased extragenital screening) among gay, bisexual, and other men who have sex with men. As in previous years, the highest rates were observed among persons aged 15–24 years, among blacks, and in the South. In 2013, the gonorrhea rate among blacks was 12.4 times the rate among whites (1).
Treatment for gonorrhea is complicated by antimicrobial resistance. Declining susceptibility to cephalosporins during 2006–2011 resulted in a change in the CDC treatment guidelines in 2012. The only CDC-recommended treatment regimen for gonorrhea is dual therapy with intramuscular ceftriaxone and oral azithromycin (2). Treatment with oral cefixime is no longer recommended because use might hasten the development of resistance to ceftriaxone. In CDC's sentinel surveillance system, Gonococcal Isolate Surveillance Project, the percentage of isolates with elevated ceftriaxone minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs) decreased from a peak of 0.4% in 2011 to 0.05% in 2013, and the percentage of isolates with elevated cefixime MICs decreased from 1.4% in 2011 to 0.4% in 2013 (1).

Hansen Disease (Leprosy)
In 2013, approximately 62% of 81 cases were reported from Texas (20%), New York City (12%), Florida (12%), and Hawaii (17%). An additional 18 cases were reported from U.S. territories with Guam accounting for 94% of these cases.
Hantavirus Pulmonary Syndrome
Hantavirus Pulmonary Syndrome (HPS) is a severe, sometimes fatal, respiratory disease in humans caused by infection with a hantavirus. Anyone who comes into contact with rodents that carry hantavirus is at risk for HPS. Rodent infestation in and around the home remains the primary risk for hantavirus exposure.
In 2013, two cases of HPS caused by infection with Bayou virus were confirmed, one in a Louisiana resident and one in a Texas resident. This is Louisiana's third and Texas' fourth HPS case due to Bayou virus infection. Of the 639 HPS cases reported since 1995, seven cases were related to Bayou virus and occurred in only Louisiana and Texas. Bayou virus is associated with the Rice Rat (Oryzomys palustris), which is found in marshy and semiaquatic areas in the southeastern United States and Central America (1).
Also in 2013, one patient with laboratory-confirmed acute hantavirus infection did not have respiratory symptoms and did not fit the clinical definition of HPS. CDC has recorded 10 such nonpulmonary hantavirus infections during the preceding 20 years of surveillance, which are not included in the national HPS case counts (2). This presents a missed opportunity to better understand the full spectrum of hantavirus-related disease. In 2014, CSTE recommended that Hantavirus infection, non-HPS become nationally notifiable (3).

Hemolytic Uremic Syndrome
Hemolytic uremic syndrome (HUS) is characterized by the triad of hemolytic anemia, thrombocytopenia, and renal insufficiency. The most common etiology of postdiarrheal HUS in the United States is infection with Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC), principally STEC O157:H7 (1,2). Children aged <5 years progress to HUS more often than all other persons infected with STEC O157:H7 (15.3% vs. 6.3%) (3). In 2013, as in previous years of surveillance, the age group with the most reported cases was children aged 1‒4 years (148 of 329 cases).

Human Immunodeficiency Virus Diagnoses
As of April 2008, all 50 states, the District of Columbia, and six U.S. territories have had laws or regulations requiring confidential name-based reporting for human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection, in addition to reporting persons whose disease has been classified as stage 3 (acquired immunodeficiency syndrome [AIDS]). In 2008, CDC published a revised surveillance case definition for HIV infection that includes AIDS and incorporates the HIV infection classification (1). Laboratory-confirmed evidence of HIV infection is required to meet the surveillance case definition for HIV infection, including stage 3 (AIDS).
This summary marks the first use of HIV data from the National HIV Surveillance System (NHSS) after implementation of updated methods for processing national HIV surveillance data. Key differences between the previous and current national data processing include more accurate deduplication resulting in lower overall numbers (approximately 1% fewer cases in the national data set) and an increase (approximately 70%) in the number of persons of multiple races living with diagnosed HIV because of the use of information from multiple records for a case when additional race information is available.
Gay, bisexual, and other men who have sex with men continue to be the risk group most affected by HIV in the United States (2). During 2013, data reported to NHSS indicated that blacks/African Americans remained the racial/ethnic group most affected by HIV, accounting for 45.7% of diagnoses that year.

Influenza-Associated Pediatric Mortality
In June 2004, the Council of State and Territorial Epidemiologists added influenza-associated pediatric mortality (i.e., among persons aged <18 years) to the list of conditions reportable to the National Notifiable Diseases Surveillance System. Cumulative year-to-date incidence is published each week in MMWR Table I for nationally notifiable diseases where <1000 cases are reported during the preceding year. MMWR counts of deaths are by date of report in a calendar year and not by date of occurrence. From December 30, 2012 to December 28, 2013*, a total of 161 influenza-associated pediatric deaths were reported to CDC from 36 states, New York City, District of Columbia (one death), and Puerto Rico (one death). This compares with a mean of 69 deaths (range: 43–118) per calendar year reported for seasonal influenza during 2005–2012. A total of 358 deaths were reported from April 15, 2009 to October 2, 2010, coinciding with the 2009 influenza A (H1N1) pandemic.
Of the 161 influenza-associated pediatric deaths reported to CDC during 2013, one death occurred during the 2011–12 influenza season, 154 occurred during the 2012–13 influenza season, and six occurred during the 2013–14 influenza season. An influenza season spans the time period between MMWR week 40 of a calendar year to MMWR week 39 of the following year. Seventy-five (46.5%) deaths were associated with influenza A viruses, 81 (50.3%) with influenza B viruses, and one (0.6%) with an influenza virus for which the type was not determined; in addition, three (2%) deaths were associated with influenza A virus and influenza B virus co-infections, and one (0.6%) with an influenza A (H3N2) and A (H1N1) pdm09 co-infection. Of 75 influenza A viruses, subtype was determined for 39 (52%); nine were pH1N1 viruses and 30 were A (H3N2) viruses.
Among the 161 cases reported in 2013, a total of 17 children (11%) were aged <6 months, 47 (29%) were aged 6–59 months, and 97 (60%) were aged 5–17 years; the median age at the time of death was 6.7 years (range: 1 month–17 years). This median age is similar to that observed before the 2009 A (H1N1) pandemic for the surveillance years 2005–2008, January–April 2009, and 2011(median age range: 4–7.5 years), but lower than that observed when pH1N1 viruses circulated widely during May–December 2009 (median age: 9.3 years) and 2010 (median age: 8.2 years).
For the 161 cases reported in 2013, the overall influenza-associated mortality rate was 0.22 deaths per 100,000 children aged <18 years. This represents a more than three-fold increase in the overall rate when compared with 2012 (0.07 deaths per 100,000 children aged <18years) and a two-fold decrease in the rate compared with 2009 (0.48 deaths per 100,000 children aged <18 years). The rates by age group were 0.31 per 100,000 population for children aged <5 years, and 0.18 for children aged 5 to <18 years (1).
Information on the location of death was available for 156 (97%) of the 161 children: 95 (61%) children died after being admitted to the hospital (85 were admitted to the intensive care unit), 36 (23%) died in the emergency department, and 25 (16%) died outside the hospital. Information on pre-existing medical conditions was reported for 153 (95%) children: 83 (54%) children had one or more underlying or chronic medical conditions placing them at increased risk for influenza-associated complications (2). The most common group of underlying conditions was neurologic disorders (e.g., moderate to severe developmental delay, seizure disorders, cerebral palsy, mitochondrial disorders, neuromuscular disorders, and neurologic conditions), which was reported for 42 (27%) of 153 children. Seventeen (11%) of 153 children had cardiac disease or congenital heart disease, 15 (10%) had chromosomal abnormalities, and 37 (24%) had a chronic pulmonary condition (e.g., asthma, cystic fibrosis, or other chronic pulmonary disease).
Of 94 (58%) children who had specimens collected for bacterial culture from normally sterile sites, 46 (49%) had positive cultures, and nine (20%) of the 46 were positive for more than one pathogen. Staphylococcus aureus was detected in 24 (52%) of 46 positive cultures; 10 were methicillin-resistant, 10 were methicillin-sensitive, and for four specimens methicillin-sensitivity testing was not done. Eleven cultures (24%) were positive for Streptococcus pneumoniae and five (11%) were positive for Group A Streptococcus. Other bacterial pathogens identified included one each with Haemophilus influenzae, Haemophilus species, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Escherichia coli, Moraxella, and Veillonella.
Of 107 children aged ≥6 months at the time of illness for whom seasonal vaccination status was known, 17 (16%) were vaccinated against influenza as recommended by the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) (3). Twenty-one children were aged <6 months at the time of illness onset and ineligible for vaccination.
The number of influenza-associated pediatric deaths reported during 2013 was the highest observed since reporting began in the fall of 2004, excluding the influenza A (H1N1) pandemic in 2009 and 2010, although that increase covered several calendar years. The 2012–13 influenza season was moderately severe and peaked in late December 2012, but the majority of pediatric deaths associated with that season were reported in 2013 (4). Continued surveillance for influenza-associated mortality is important to monitor the effects of seasonal and novel influenza, factors contributing to severe influenza-associated disease, and the influence of interventions among children. Because of low vaccination rates it is recommended that increased efforts be directed towards achieving higher vaccination rates among all eligible children and encourage vaccination especially among children with the underlying medical conditions.

Listeriosis
Listeria monocytogenes infection (listeriosis) is rare but can cause severe invasive disease (e.g., bacteremia, meningitis). Listeriosis is predominately acquired through contaminated food and occurs most frequently among older adults, persons with certain immunocompromising conditions, and pregnant women and their newborns. Pregnancy-associated listeriosis is usually a relatively mild illness for the woman, but can result in fetal loss or severe neonatal disease.
Listeriosis has been nationally notifiable since 2000. In 2013, the incidence of listeriosis reported to NNDSS was 0.23 infections per 100,000 population. Progress toward the 2020 national target of 0.20 infections per 100,000 population (1) is measured through the Foodborne Diseases Active Surveillance Network (FoodNet), which conducts active, population-based surveillance for listeriosis in 10 US states. FoodNet reported a preliminary annual incidence of Listeria monocytogenes in 2013 of 0.26 infections per 100,000 population, similar to the rate reported to NNDSS (2).
The Listeria Initiative is an enhanced surveillance system designed to aid in the rapid investigation of listeriosis outbreaks by combining molecular subtyping results with epidemiologic data collected by state and local health departments (3). As part of the Listeria Initiative, CDC recommends that all clinical isolates of L. monocytogenes be forwarded routinely to a public health laboratory for pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE) subtyping, and that these PFGE subtyping results be submitted to PulseNet, the National Molecular Subtyping Network for Foodborne Disease Surveillance (4); clinical isolates also should be promptly sent to CDC for further characterization. In addition, communicable disease programs are asked to interview all patients with listeriosis promptly using the standard Listeria Initiative questionnaire, which is available in English and Spanish (http://www.cdc.gov/listeria/surveillance.html).
Beginning in September 2013, whole genome sequencing has been performed on all clinical isolates as part of a project conducted by CDC, state and local health departments, the Food and Drug Administration, the U.S. Department of Agriculture's Food Safety and Inspection Service, the National Institutes of Health, and international partners (5). All isolate sequences are deposited in publicly available databases at the National Center for Biotechnology Information of the National Institutes of Health. The Listeria Initiative has aided in the timely identification and removal of contaminated food during several listeriosis investigations, including a multistate outbreak of 6 illnesses that was linked to farmstead cheese in 2013 (6).

Lyme Disease
National surveillance for Lyme disease was implemented in the United States in 1991 using a case definition based on clinical and laboratory findings. CSTE revised the case definition, effective 2008, to standardize laboratory criteria for confirmation and to allow reporting of "probable" cases.
In 2013, the number of confirmed and probable Lyme disease cases reported to CDC increased compared with the average number reported during 2010–2012. However, the number of confirmed cases in 2013 remained lower than the average reported during 2007–2009. Nevertheless, the geographic distribution of cases continues to increase. In 2013, a total of 412 counties had a reported incidence of ≥10 confirmed cases per 100,000 persons compared with 356 counties in 2012, and 324 counties in 2008.
Measles
Measles was declared eliminated from the United States in 2000. Since then, elimination has been maintained through high population immunity along with adequate disease surveillance and public health response capacity (1,2). Nonetheless, because measles remains endemic in much of the world, importations continue to result in sporadic cases and outbreaks in the United States, which can be costly to control (3). As in recent years, most measles cases (98%) were import associated (4). Measles was classified as internationally imported in 52 cases (5), 30 of which were in U.S. residents exposed while traveling abroad.
A measles outbreak is defined as a chain of transmission involving three or more cases. Ten outbreaks occurred in 2013, accounting for 75% of the total cases. The three largest outbreaks accounted for 55% of the cases. In each of these outbreaks, transmission occurred after a U.S. resident traveler introduced measles into communities with pockets of persons unvaccinated because of philosophical or religious beliefs. This allowed for spread to occur, mainly in households and community gatherings, before public health interventions could be implemented.
The largest outbreak occurred in New York City (58 cases). None of the patients had documentation of vaccination at the time of exposure. Twelve patients were aged <12 months. Of those who were eligible for vaccination, 67% had objected or had parental objection to vaccination because of religious or philosophical beliefs (6). The second largest outbreak occurred in North Carolina (23 cases, including a California resident) and mainly involved persons not vaccinated because of personal belief exemptions (7). The third largest outbreak was among 21 members of a church community in Texas aged 4 months–44 years. Nineteen (90%) of the cases were in patients aged >12 months, and 81% of those were unvaccinated (8). These outbreaks illustrate that imported measles cases can result in large outbreaks, particularly if introduced into areas with pockets of unvaccinated persons.

Meningococcal Disease
Neisseria meningitidis is an important cause of bacterial meningitis and sepsis in the United States. In 2013, rates of meningococcal disease continued to be at historic lows in the United States (0.18 per 100,000 population). Meningococcal disease incidence remained highest among infants aged <1 year and adolescents and young adults (1,2). Among infants, disease incidence peaks within the first six months of life and most cases in this age group are caused by serogroup B (2). Serogroups C, Y, or W cause 73% of all cases of meningococcal disease among persons aged ≥11 years (2). In 2013, two universities, one in New Jersey and one in California, experienced serogroup B outbreaks with a combined 13 cases and one death reported.
CDC's Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices recommends routine use of quadrivalent (A, C, W, Y) meningococcal conjugate vaccine in adolescents and others at increased risk for disease (1,3). In October 2010, a booster dose was recommended for adolescents at age 16 years (1). In 2013, coverage with at least one dose of meningococcal conjugate vaccine was 77.8% among adolescents aged 13–17 years in the United States; however, coverage ranged from 40.4%–93.7% by state, including the District of Columbia (4). Two serogroup B meningococcal vaccines were licensed for use in the United States in 2014 and 2015. Both vaccines are approved for use in persons aged 10–25 years.

Novel Influenza A Viruses
In 2007, CSTE added human infection with a novel influenza A virus to the list of conditions reportable to NNDSS (1). Novel influenza A virus infections are human infections with influenza A viruses that are different from currently circulating human seasonal influenza viruses. These viruses include those that are subtyped as nonhuman in origin and those that cannot be subtyped with standard methods and reagents used for currently circulating influenza viruses.
Influenza viruses that circulate in swine are called swine influenza viruses when isolated from swine, but are called variant viruses when isolated from humans. During 2005–2013, all cases of human infection with novel influenza A viruses involved variant viruses, rather than avian-origin influenza viruses. Although most persons identified with variant influenza virus infection report contact with swine preceding their illness, limited human-to-human transmission of these viruses has occurred (2). Because the implications of sustained, ongoing transmission of these viruses between humans are potentially severe, prompt and thorough investigation of sporadic human infections with nonhuman influenza viruses is needed to reduce the risk for sustained transmission (3).
In 2013, a total of 21 cases of human infection with novel influenza A viruses were reported from six states (Arkansas [two], Illinois [one], Indiana [14], Iowa [one], Michigan [two], and Ohio [one]) (4,5). Two cases (Arkansas) were associated with an influenza A (H1N1) variant virus (H1N1v), and the other 19 cases were associated with influenza A (H3N2) variant viruses (H3N2v). Twelve cases occurred in June (Indiana), four cases in July (Illinois [one], Indiana [two], and Ohio [one]), two cases in August (Michigan), and three cases in September (Arkansas [two] and Iowa [one]). The median age of patients was six years (range: 2–69 years), and 20 (95%) were aged <18 years; seven (33%) were male. The most commonly reported symptoms were fever (100%), cough (90%), fatigue (74%), and vomiting or diarrhea (57%); 19 (90%) patients reported influenza-like illness (e.g., fever (≥100°F [37.8°C], oral or equivalent) with cough and/or sore throat). Overall, six (29%) patients had at least one underlying medical condition known to confer increased risk for complications from influenza (6), the most common of which was asthma, which occurred in three patients. Twenty patients (95%) sought health care for illness and one of the 21 patients (with H3N2v virus infection) was hospitalized for influenza; all 21 fully recovered from their illness. All 21 patients reported direct contact (touching or handling) or indirect contact (walking through an area or coming within 6 feet) with swine in the week preceding illness onset. No cases were identified that were associated with likely human-to-human transmission of novel influenza A viruses.
Transmission of variant influenza A viruses to humans usually occurs among persons in direct contact with pigs or in those who have visited places where pigs were present (e.g., agricultural fairs, farms, and petting zoos). CDC conducts surveillance for human infections with novel influenza A viruses in conjunction with state and local public health laboratories year-round and conducts extensive epidemiologic investigations on each case. Any specimen with results suggestive of the presence of a novel influenza A virus or that cannot be subtyped using standard methods and reagents at a public health laboratory is immediately submitted to CDC for further testing. Surveillance for human infections with novel influenza A viruses is essential, and early identification and investigation of these cases are critical to evaluate the extent of outbreaks, and the potential for human-to-human transmission.

Pertussis
Reported pertussis cases decreased from 2012 (incidence: 15.4 per 100,000 population) to 2013 (9.1); however, U.S. pertussis case notifications continue to exceed those reported during the 1990s and early 2000s. Age-specific pertussis rates were highest among infants aged <1 year (102.8 per 100,000 population); children aged 7–10 years contributed the second highest rates of disease nationally (30.6), followed closely by adolescents aged 11–14 years (28.7).
A single dose of tetanus, diphtheria, and acellular pertussis (Tdap) vaccine is recommended for all adults and adolescents aged ≥11 years. Although coverage among adolescents aged 13–17 years continues to improve (84.6% in 2012 to 86.0% in 2013), coverage among adults remains low (14.2% in 2012) (1–3). To reduce the burden of pertussis among young infants, Tdap vaccination during pregnancy remains a priority. ACIP recommends a dose of Tdap vaccine during every pregnancy (4).

Poliomyelitis, Paralytic and Poliovirus Infections
Vaccine-Associated Paralytic Poliomyelitis (VAPP) is a rare adverse reaction that can occur following vaccination with live-attenuated oral poliovirus vaccine (OPV) or after a susceptible person is exposed to someone who has been vaccinated with OPV (1,2). Inactivated poliovirus vaccine (IPV) does not cause VAPP. To reduce the risk for VAPP, the United States changed from an all OPV schedule to a sequential IPV/OPV schedule in 1997, and then to an all IPV schedule in 2000 (3,4). Before the use of OPV was discontinued in 2000, approximately eight cases of VAPP occurred in the United States each year (5). Since that time, only three cases of VAPP have been reported in the U.S.: one in 2005 in an unvaccinated traveler to countries using OPV (6), a second in 2009 in a U.S.-born resident with longstanding common variable immunodeficiency (7), and a third described below in a person who had severe combined immunodeficiency syndrome (SCIDS) (8).
In 2013, the Texas Department of State Health Services reported VAPP in a male infant from India with severe combined immunodeficiency. The infant, aged 7 months, was referred to a community hospital in early July 2013 with intermittent fever associated with a draining skin lesion at the site of a baccile Calmette-Guérin (BCG) vaccination. The child later developed increased irritability and decreased movement of the left leg. Blood culture confirmed the diagnosis of BCG-osis (disseminated BCG infection) and stool culture identified immunodeficiency-related vaccine derived poliovirus iVDPV type 1 (iVDPV1). Genetic evaluation of the iVDPV1 isolate was consistent with receipt of the first of two OPV doses administered during national immunization days in India, although other potential sources of secondary exposure are possible. The child developed respiratory distress and subsequently died.

Q fever
Q fever is a worldwide disease with acute and chronic stages caused by the bacteria Coxiella burnetii. During June–December 2013, an outbreak of Q fever in the United States occurred in Missouri resulted in 47 cases that met the outbreak case definition. This outbreak was associated with a large-scale cow and goat dairy. Two categories of Q fever have been notifiable since 2008: acute Q fever and chronic Q fever. Although patients with acute Q fever have good survival rates, chronic Q fever can be life threatening, especially when untreated. Thirty-three cases of chronic Q fever were reported in 2013, an increase in the annual number of reported cases (range: 16–26) since chronic Q fever became a reportable condition.
Salmonellosis
In 2013, the incidence of salmonellosis in the United States was 15.5 laboratory-confirmed infections per 100,000 population, approximately one and a half times the 2020 national health objective target of 11.4 infections per 100,000 population (1). Data from the Foodborne Diseases Active Surveillance Network (FoodNet), which conducts active surveillance for salmonellosis in 10 U.S. states, are used to measure progress towards Healthy People 2020 objectives. In 2013, FoodNet reported a preliminary annual incidence of Salmonella of 15.2 infections per 100,000 population, slightly lower than the rate reported to NNDSS (2). During 2013, as in previous years of surveillance, children aged <5 years had the highest reported incidence rates of salmonellosis. Salmonellosis is reported most frequently in late summer and early fall; in 2013, this seasonality was evident, with most reports in June, July, August, and September.
Accounting for underdiagnosis, Salmonella causes an estimated 1.2 million illnesses annually in the United States, approximately 1 million of which are transmitted by food consumed in the United States (3). Salmonella can contaminate a wide range of foods, and different serotypes tend to have different animal reservoirs and food sources, making control challenging. In 2013, the largest multistate outbreak of Salmonella infections (serotype Heidelberg) was traced to contaminated chicken; other notable outbreaks were linked to live poultry (serotypes Typhimurium, Infantis, Lille, Newport, and Mbandaka), tahini sesame paste (serotypes Montevideo and Mbandaka), cucumbers (serotype Saintpaul), ground beef (serotype Typhimurium), and small turtles (serotypes Sandiego, Pomona, and Poona) (4).

Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC)
In 2013, the incidence of laboratory-confirmed Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC) infections in the United States was 1.9 cases per 100,000 population. As in previous years of surveillance, the age group with the highest incidence of reported STEC infections was children aged <5 years. In 2013, multistate outbreaks of STEC infection linked to foods included ready-to-eat salads (STEC O157:H7) and frozen food products from a single manufacturer (STEC O121) (1).
Public health actions to monitor, prevent, and control STEC infections are based on serogroup characterization. Development of postdiarrheal hemolytic uremic syndrome (HUS), a severe complication of STEC infection, is most strongly associated with STEC O157. Non-O157 STEC, a diverse group that varies in virulence, comprises over 50 other serogroups. In the United States, STEC O157 is the most commonly reported serogroup of STEC causing human infection; however, increased use of assays for the detection of Shiga toxins in clinical laboratories in recent years has led to increased reporting of non-O157 STEC infection (2). STEC can produce Shiga toxins (Stx): Stx1, Stx2, or both. In general, strains that produce certain types of Stx 2 are the most virulent (3). Accounting for underdiagnosis, approximately 96,000 illnesses are caused by STEC O157, and approximately 168,000 illnesses are caused by non-O157 STEC each year (4).
Stool specimens from patients with community-acquired diarrhea submitted to clinical laboratories should be tested routinely both by culture for STEC O157 and by an assay that detects Shiga toxins (or the genes that encode them). Detection of Shiga toxin alone is inadequate for clinical management and public health investigation; characterizing STEC isolates by serogroup and by pulsed-field gel electrophoresis pattern is important to detect, investigate, and control outbreaks.

Shigellosis
In 2013, the incidence of reported shigellosis in the United States was 4.1 infections per 100,000 population; Shigella infections have not declined appreciably since 2003 (1). In 2013, as in previous years, the highest number of reported cases of shigellosis occurred among children aged <10 years. S. sonnei infections generally account for about 75% of shigellosis in the United States (1). Shigellosis does not demonstrate marked seasonality, likely reflecting the importance of person-to-person transmission.
Accounting for underdiagnosis, Shigella causes an estimated 500,000 illnesses annually in the United States, approximately 130,000 of which are transmitted by food consumed in the United States (2). Shigella is often transmitted person-to-person, including through sexual contact between men who have sex with men (MSM), and can also be transmitted by contaminated food or by contaminated water used for drinking or recreational purposes (3). Some cases of shigellosis are also acquired during international travel (4,5). Child care-associated outbreaks are common and are often difficult to control (6).
MSM and HIV-positive persons appear to be at the greatest risk for Shigella with decreased susceptibility to azithromycin. In 2013, all isolates known to be resistant to azithromycin harbored mphA or ermB macroslide resistance genes that are commonly plasmid-encoded. Clinicians are urged to test MSM and HIV-positive persons with shigellosis for antimicrobial resistance testing to determine the best course of treatment (7).

Spotted Fever Rickettsiosis
Spotted fever rickettsioses (SFR) are a group of tickborne infections caused by some members of the genus Rickettsia. The number of reported cases of SFR decreased from 4,470 in 2012 to 3,359 in 2013. Although a decrease in reported SFR cases occurred, 2013 represents the second highest year of SFR reports since 1920, when national surveillance of SFR began. Rocky Mountain spotted fever (RMSF), the most virulent of the SFR, is vectored by the American dog tick (Dermacentor variabilis), the brown dog tick (Rhipicephalus sanguineus), and the Rocky Mountain wood tick (Dermacentor andersoni) in the United States.
Syphilis, Congenital
Trends in congenital syphilis usually follow trends in primary and secondary syphilis among women, with a lag of 1–2 years. During 2009–2012, national rates of female primary and secondary syphilis and congenital syphilis declined. In 2013, the rate of congenital syphilis increased from 8.4 to 8.7 cases per 100,000 live births, the first increase since 2008. This increase was largely driven by increased cases in the West, and coincided with the increased rate of primary and secondary syphilis among women in the West during 2010–2013. Racial and ethnic disparities persisted: rates of congenital syphilis among blacks (29.0 cases per 100,000 live births) and among Hispanics (9.7 cases per 100,000 live births) were 10.4 and 3.5 times, respectively, the rate among whites (2.8 cases per 100,000 live births) (1).
- CDC. Sexually transmitted disease surveillance 2013. Atlanta, GA: US Department of Health and Human Services, CDC; 2014.
Syphilis, Primary and Secondary
In 2013, rates of primary and secondary syphilis were the highest reported since 1995. During 2012–2013, the rate of primary and secondary syphilis increased from 5.0 cases to 5.5 cases per 100,000 population. The rate among women (0.9 cases per 100,000 population) remained unchanged in 2013, but among men increased from 9.2 (in 2012) to 10.3 (in 2013) cases per 100,000 population, marking the 13th consecutive year the rate increased among men. Rates were highest in men aged 20–24 years and 25–29 years (1). In 2013, the rate among men remained highest among blacks aged 20–24 years and 25–29 years (96.4 cases and 97.2 cases per 100,000 population, respectively) (1). During 2007–2013, a total of 33 jurisdictions reported sex-of-sexual-partner data for 70% or more cases of primary and secondary syphilis each year; cases among gay, bisexual, and other men who have sex with men (MSM) increased each year. In 2013, 75% of all cases of primary and secondary syphilis were among MSM.

Trichinellosis
In 2013, a total of 22 trichinellosis cases were reported. The 18 cases for which a suspected or known source of Trichinella infection was documented were attributed to the consumption of wild boar (n = 10), bear (n = six), and unspecified type of pork (n = two). No likely source of infection could be identified for the remaining four cases reported.
Two outbreaks were reported in 2013. One outbreak involved illnesses in three of five persons, all residents of Maryland, who ate bear meat that was hunted in Alaska. The meat was prepared into patties that were reportedly cooked on a charcoal grill for 15 minutes. This underscores the unreliability of cook time or subjective measures (e.g., color/appearance of meat) to assess doneness and the need to use a food thermometer to ensure that the meat has reached a safe temperature for consumption (1). The other 2013 outbreak affected members of two families in Illinois. A member of one of the families prepared sausage with deer meat and the meat of a wild boar that he hunted at a wild game park in Missouri. He shared the meat with his own family and members of a second family; all nine persons who consumed the deer and wild boar sausage developed trichinellosis (2). No boar meat was available for testing, but leftover samples of deer meat and the sausage were sent to CDC for confirmation and molecular characterization. The deer meat was negative for Trichinella parasites, but Trichinella spiralis larvae were found in the sausage; therefore, the wild boar and not the deer was determined to be the source of infection. This was the second reported trichinellosis outbreak in three years associated with boar from a wild game park. This highlights the risks associated with eating meat from wild animals, even those hunted in relative captivity, such as those in wild game parks (2,3). The best way to prevent Trichinella infection is to thoroughly cook all meats to the USDA-recommended temperatures before consumption (1).

Typhoid Fever
Typhoid fever is rare in the United States. Since 2009, an annual average of less than 400 cases have been reported. In 2013, a total of 338 cases were reported. Approximately 75% of U.S. cases are associated with international travel (1), and the risk for infection is highest for travelers visiting friends and relatives in countries where typhoid fever is endemic, perhaps because they are less likely than other travelers to seek pretravel vaccination and to observe strict safe water and food practices. The risk also is higher for travelers who visit areas where the disease is highly endemic, such as the Indian subcontinent, even for a short time (2). In 2011, CDC removed pretravel typhoid vaccination recommendations for 26 low-risk destinations; pretravel vaccination guidelines are available at http://wwwnc.cdc.gov/travel (3).

Varicella
A second dose of varicella vaccine was added to the vaccination schedule for children in 2006 (1). Since then, the number of states reporting varicella cases to CDC through the National Notifiable Diseases Surveillance System (NNDSS) has increased from 29 to 40 as of 2013. Among these 40 states, varicella incidence in 31 states meeting criteria for adequate and consistent reporting (2) has declined 80.6% from 31.4 per 100,000 in 2006 to 6.1 per 100,000 in 2013.
National varicella surveillance data are being used to monitor trends in varicella incidence. Monitoring the association of the varicella vaccination program and disease trends requires data from variables such as age, vaccination status, disease severity (e.g., number of lesions), outcome of the case (e.g., hospitalized or died), and whether the case is associated with an outbreak. In 2013, among the cases reported from the 31 states with adequate and consistent reporting (2), data on age, vaccination status, disease severity, outcome, and whether the case was outbreak-related were included for 94%, 45%, 30%, 20%, and 65% of the cases, respectively. Of the limited number of cases with complete information, 50% were aged 1–9 years and 22.9% were aged 10–19 years; 54.9% had received at least one dose of varicella vaccine, and of those with information on number of doses, 56.3% received 2 doses; 49.2% reported mild disease (<50 lesions); 2% of cases had been hospitalized; and 14.2% were associated with outbreaks. Additionally, 27.8% of reported cases had laboratory testing for varicella, of which 7.4% were laboratory confirmed. As states continue improving varicella surveillance practices (3), increasing completeness of reporting for the clinical and epidemiologic variables and increasing laboratory testing of reported cases will allow for effective continued monitoring of the association of the 2-dose varicella vaccine program and changing varicella epidemiology.

Vibriosis
The incidence of reported vibriosis (infection caused by a species from the family Vibrionaceae other than toxigenic Vibrio cholerae O1 or O139) has increased since 2007 (1). In 2012, an outbreak of V. parahaemoyticus infections was associated with consumption of shellfish harvested from Oyster Bay Harbor, New York (2). This same strain continued to cause illness in 2013 resulting in a total of 104 cases in 13 states. Illness was associated with consumption of shellfish harvested from Connecticut, Massachusetts, New York, and Virginia (3).

Viral Hepatitis
Viral hepatitis is caused by infection with any of at least five distinct viruses: hepatitis A virus (HAV), hepatitis B virus (HBV), hepatitis C virus (HCV), hepatitis D virus (HDV), and hepatitis E virus (HEV). Most viral hepatitis infections in the United States are attributable to HAV, HBV, and HCV. All three of these unrelated viruses can produce an acute illness characterized by nausea, malaise, abdominal pain and jaundice; however, many of these acute infections are asymptomatic or cause only mild disease. Thus, many persons infected with HBV or HCV are unaware they are infected and have clinically silent infections for decades until developing cirrhosis, end-stage liver disease, or hepatocellular carcinoma. Both HAV and HBV are vaccine-preventable diseases and there are effective treatments for HBV and cure for HCV. Until recently, acute viral hepatitis disease had declined; however, surveillance detected increases in all three viral infections (HAV, HBV, and HCV).
The number of reported cases of acute HAV infection declined during 2006–2011. However, after this historic decline, the number increased 27.4%, from 1,398 cases in 2011 to 1,781 cases in 2013. During 2012–2013, the number of reported cases and rates increased for all persons aged ≥30 years, with the greatest increase from 207 to 302 reported cases (45.9%) among persons aged 30–39 years. In 2013, whites had the highest number of cases, but Asian/Pacific Islanders and Hispanics had the highest rate of HAV infection. Rates of HAV infection have been similar for males and females since 2003. Half of all HAV infections are now acquired outside the United States by adult travelers (1). Pre-exposure vaccination of international travelers, especially of those traveling areas where HAV is endemic, provides an opportunity to decrease the number and rate of HAV infection in the United States.
During 1990–2012, the number of acute cases of HBV infection declined, resulting in the lowest number of reported cases in 2012; however, during 2012–2013, the number of reported cases of acute HBV infection increased 5.3%, from 2,895 cases to 3,050 cases. The number of reported cases and rates increased among persons aged 30–39 and 40–49 years. Although the number and rate of acute HBV infection declined from 1.52 cases per 100,000 population to 1.27 cases per 100,000 population among non-Hispanic Blacks during 2012–2013, the rate remained the highest relative to all other race/ethnic groups, despite an increase in the rate among American Indian/Alaska Natives and non-Hispanic Whites. The rate of acute HBV infection was 1.6 times higher for males (1.2 cases per 100,000 population) than for females (0.73 cases per 100,000).
After receiving reports of approximately 800–1,000 cases of acute HCV infection each year during 2006–2010, there was an increase of 73.9% (from 1,232 in 2011 to 2,138 in 2013) in the number of cases reported to CDC (2). During 2010–2013, the number of reported cases and rates increased among all age groups, with the greatest increase occurring among those aged 20–29 years. Epidemiologic investigations have demonstrated that a marked increase in the number of acute cases of HCV infection have been found among young, nonminority persons who inject drugs, many of whom also abuse oral prescription opioid drugs (3–5). In 2013, American Indians/Alaska Natives had the highest rate (1.7 cases per 100,000 population) of acute HCV infection, 1.9 times higher than the rate for non-Hispanic whites, 6.9 times higher than Hispanics, 8 times higher than non-Hispanic Blacks, and 20.6 times higher than Asian/Pacific Islanders. Rates of acute HCV infection were similar for males and females in 2013.
Enhanced surveillance for viral hepatitis is necessary for early identification of persons previously unaware of their conditions. Early identification provides an opportunity for infected individuals to be linked to counseling and medical care, preventing continued transmission and advancement of hepatitis disease.

Alternate Text: This figure is a bar graph that presents the number of reported cases of diphtheria, by year, in the United States during 1983-2013.
EHRLICHIOSIS, ANAPLASMA PHAGOCYTOPHILUM. Number of reported cases, by county — United States, 2013
Cases are reported primarily from the Upper Midwest and coastal New England, reflecting both the range of the primary tick vector species, Ixodes scapularis, also known to transmit Lyme disease and babesiosis, and the range of preferred animal hosts for tick feeding.
Alternate Text: This figure is a map of the United States that presents the number of ehrlichiosis (anaplasma phagocytophilum) cases by county in 2013.
EHRLICHIOSIS, EHRLICHIA CHAFFEENSIS. Number of reported cases, by county — United States, 2013
Ehrlichia chaffeensis is the most common type of ehrlichiosis infection in the United States. This tickborne pathogen is transmitted by Amblyomma americanum, the lonestar tick, whose geographic range extends from the Southeast into parts of the Northeast and Midwest. The majority of cases of E. chaffeensis ehrlichiosis are reported from the Midwest, South, and Northeast regions.
Alternate Text: This figure is a map of the United States that presents the number of Ehrlichiosis (Ehrlichia chaffeensis) cases by county in 2013.
EHRLICHIOSIS, EHRLICHIA EWINGII. Number of reported cases, by county — United States, 2013
Ehrlichia ewingii is the least common cause of ehrlichiosis. Ehrlichia ewingii is carried by Amblyomma americanum, the lonestar tick, which is the same vector that transmits E. chaffeensis, and whose geographic range extends from the Southeast into parts of the Northeast and Midwest. No serologic tests are used to distinguish between the two species, and differentiation can only be made by molecular genotyping.
Alternate Text: This figure is a map of the United States that presents the number of Ehrlichiosis (Ehrlichia ewingii) cases in by county in 2013.
EHRLICHIOSIS, undetermined. Number of reported cases, by county — United States, 2013
Cases of ehrlichiosis and anaplasmosis, caused by an undetermined species, are reported across the United States but are more likely to be reported in the Midwest region and the Middle Atlantic division. This classification of "undetermined" is most often used in geographic areas where no clear geographic boundary separates the individual tick vectors. Because ehrlichiosis and anaplasmosis elicit some cross reactivity in antibody detection, this category can also be used when single, inappropriate diagnostic tests are performed that do not provide differentiation of etiology.
Alternate Text: This figure is a map of the United States that presents the number of Ehrlichiosis (undetermined) cases by county in 2013.
GIARDIASIS. Incidence* of reported cases — United States and U.S. territories, 2013

Hemolytic Uremic Syndrome, Postdiarrheal. Number of reported cases — United States and U.S. territories, 2013
In 2013, 40 jurisdictions (states, districts, and territories) reported cases. Most cases of postdiarrheal hemolytic uremic syndrome (HUS) are caused by Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC).
Alternate Text: This figure is a map of the United States and U.S. territories that presents the number of hemolytic uremic, postdiarrheal cases in each state and territory in 2013.
Hepatitis, Viral. Incidence* of reported cases, by year — United States, 1983–2013
Hepatitis A incidence declined during 1998–2011 and increased in 2012 and 2013. The hepatitis A vaccine became available in 1995, the last year a peak in incidence of acute, symptomatic hepatitis A was observed. Coinciding with the implementation of the national vaccination strategy to eliminate hepatitis B infections, the incidence of acute hepatitis B has declined since 1987. Acute hepatitis B incidence has remained stable since 2008. The incidence of acute hepatitis C remained fairly stable during 1992–2000, declined in 2001 and 2002, remained stable during 2003–2005, and increased in 2011, 2012, and 2013. Recent investigations suggest this increase is largely driven by acute infections in nonurban young persons who start injecting drugs after habituation to oral prescription opioid drugs such as "OxyContin" and oxycodone.
Alternate Text: This figure is a line graph that presents the incidence per 100,000 population of viral hepatitis, with separate lines for hepatitis A, B, and C, in the United States from 1983 to 2013.
Hepatitis A. Incidence* of reported cases, by county — United States, 2013
Although effective vaccines to prevent Hepatitis A virus infections have been available in the United States since 1995, cases still occur in almost every state. In 2013, a total of 1,781 cases were reported and 17 counties in 13 states reported incidence rates of >10 cases per 100,000 population. Two of these counties in one state reported incidence rates of >20 cases.
Alternate Text: This figure is a map of the United States that presents the incidence range per 100,000 population of hepatitis A by county in 2013.
Hepatitis B Perinatal Infection. Number of reported cases — United States and U.S. territories, 2013
In 2013, a total of 16 states reported 48 cases of perinatal hepatitis B. Because of the asymptomatic nature of hepatitis B in young children, lack of timely testing among exposed infants, and incomplete reporting of infants with hepatitis B to public health surveillance programs, the reported number of cases of perinatal hepatitis B is considered low and represents only a proportion of all infants infected with hepatitis B virus at birth.

The incidence of legionellosis increased again in 2013, continuing a general increase that began in 2003. Decreases since 2003 do not result in a lower incidence beyond the immediate past year. Factors contributing to this increase might include increased diagnostic testing or an increase in disease transmission.
Alternate Text: This figure is a line graph that presents the incidence per 100,000 population of legionellosis cases in the United States from 1998 to 2013.
LISTERIOSIS. Incidence* of reported cases — United States and U.S. territories, 2013
In 2013, a total of 44 states, the District of Columbia, and New York City reported 735 cases of listeriosis for an overall incidence rate in the United States of 0.23 infections per 100,000, which is unchanged from 2012. Incidence rates were highest in the Northeastern states. To improve outbreak detection and better link cases to food sources, prospective, real-time whole genome sequencing of L. monocytogenes isolates began in September 2013.
Alternate Text: This figure is a map of the United States and U.S. territories that presents the incidence range per 100,000 population of listeriosis cases in each state and territory in 2013.
LYME DISEASE. Incidence* of reported confirmed cases, by county — United States, 2013
Approximately 95% of confirmed Lyme disease cases are reported from states in the Northeast, mid-Atlantic, and upper Midwest. A rash that can be confused with early Lyme disease sometimes occurs following bites of the lone star tick (Amblyomma americanum). These ticks, which do not transmit the Lyme disease bacterium, are common human-biting ticks in the southern and southeastern United States.

MALARIA. Number of reported cases — United States and U.S. territories, 2013
In 2013, cases of malaria were reported from almost every state, and nearly all cases reported in the United States were acquired overseas. Cases in eight states or areas (California, Maryland, Massachusetts, New Jersey, New York City, Pennsylvania, Texas, and Virginia) accounted for 53% of the reported cases because of large immigrant populations and international travelers.
Alternate Text: This figure is a map of the United States and U.S. territories that presents the number of malaria cases in the United States in 2013.
MEASLES. Incidence* of reported cases, by year — United States, 1978–2013
In 2000, the U.S. achieved measles elimination (defined as interruption of year-round endemic measles transmission). Measles elimination has been maintained in the United States for more than a decade through high population immunity secondary to high measles-mumps-rubella vaccination coverage.
Alternate Text: This figure is a line graph that presents the incidence per 100,000 population of measles cases in the United States from 1978 to 2013.
MENINGOCOCCAL DISEASE. Incidence* of reported cases, by year — United States, 1983–2013
In 2013, meningococcal disease incidence remained low, but it continues to cause substantial morbidity and mortality in the United States. In 2005, a quadrivalent (A,C,W,Y) meningococcal conjugate vaccine was licensed and recommended for adolescents and others at increased risk for disease. In October 2010, a booster dose was added to recommendations for adolescents at age 16 years.
Alternate Text: This figure is a line graph that presents the incidence per 100,000 population of meningococcal disease cases in the United States from 1983 to 2013.
MUMPS. Incidence* of reported cases, by year — United States, 1988–2013
The widespread use of a second dose of mumps vaccine beginning in 1989 was followed by historically low morbidity until 2006, when the United States experienced the largest mumps outbreak in two decades. The 2006 outbreak of approximately 6,000 cases primarily affected college students aged 18–24 years in the Midwest. A second large outbreak occurred during 2009–2010 and affected Orthodox Jewish communities in the Northeast.

SPOTTED FEVER RICKETTSIOSIS. Number of reported cases, by county — United States, 2013
In the United States, the majority of cases of spotted fever rickettsiosis (SFR) are attributed to infection with Rickettsia rickettsii, the causative agent of Rocky Mountain spotted fever (RMSF). Cases of SFR also might be from other agents such as Rickettsia parkeri and Rickettsia species 364D. RMSF is ubiquitous across the United States, which represents the widespread nature of the three tick vectors known to transmit RMSF: Dermacentor variabilis in the East, Dermacentor andersoni in the West, and Rhipicephalus sanguineus, recently recognized as a new tick vector in parts of Arizona. Historically, much of the incidence of RMSF has been in the Central Atlantic region and parts of the Midwest; however, endemic transmission of RMSF in Arizona communities has led to a substantial reported incidence rate.
Alternate Text: The figure is a map that presents the number of spotted fever rickettsiosis cases by county in the United States in 2013.
SYPHILIS, CONGENITAL. Incidence* of reported cases among infants, by year of birth — United States, 1983–2013
