1 Baseline refers to the level of influenza-like illness in the months when seasonal influenza virus is less likely to be circulating.  Baseline is determined by averaging the statewide percentages of ILI over a three-year period, using data only from the months of May through August.  (The calculation does not include weeks in which fewer than four counties reported any data.)

2 Confirmed by viral culture or PCR testing.

3 This means at least two of the following sectors – schools, emergency departments, long-term care facilities, healthcare providers – are reporting rates of ILI above baseline levels.

4 Within the previous three weeks.
