U: Unavailable. The data were unavailable.
Standardized perinatal hepatitis C case notifications to CDC began during 2018, with implementation of the National Notifiable Diseases Surveillance System case definition. The capacity of health departments for conducting perinatal hepatitis C surveillance varies on the basis of different factors, including local testing and laboratory reporting practices and resources for case management and follow-up. As capacity for viral hepatitis surveillance improves, CDC anticipates that the number of perinatal hepatitis C cases identified and reported to CDC will increase with time.
During 2019, a total of 24 states reported 217 cases of perinatal hepatitis C. The states with the highest reported number of perinatal hepatitis C cases include Ohio (n = 41), Florida (n = 20), and Pennsylvania (n = 20).
