      o Influenza-Associated Pediatric Deaths: Fourteen pediatric deaths were reported.

      o Influenza-Associated Hospitalizations: A cumulative rate for the season of 34.2 laboratory-confirmed influenza-associated hospitalizations per 100,000 population was reported. Of reported hospitalizations, more than 50% were among adults 65 years and older.

      o Outpatient Illness Surveillance: The proportion of outpatient visits for influenza-like illness (ILI) was 2.8%. This is above the national baseline of 2.2%. All 10 regions reported ILI at or above region-specific baseline levels. Three states experienced high ILI activity; 13 states and New York City experienced moderate activity; 11 states experienced low activity; 23 states experienced minimal activity, and the District of Columbia had insufficient data.
