* Rates per 100,000 population.
† Reported cases that met the classification criteria for a confirmed case. For the case definition, see https://ndc.services.cdc.gov/conditions/hepatitis-a-acute/. Only states with rates for 2018 and 2019 are shown. No hepatitis A cases were reported from Montana and North Dakota in 2018
During 2019, the rates of reported hepatitis A ranged from a high of 31.6 cases per 100,000 population in Tennessee to a low of 0.1 case per 100,000 population in Hawaii. Changes in rates during 2018 and 2019 were influenced by the time that person-to-person outbreaks occurred within jurisdictions. The largest increase in rates was observed in New Hampshire, with a rate during 2019 (22.7 cases per 100,000 population), 25 times the rate reported during 2018 (0.9 cases per 100,000 population). In contrast, the largest decrease in a rate was observed in Utah, where the 2019 rate decreased by 86%, as the person-to-person outbreak was resolving.
