Nationally, levels of influenza-like illness (ILI) and COVID-19-like illness (CLI) remain lower than peaks seen in March and April but are increasing in several regions.
Nationally, levels of ILI remain below baseline for the tenth week and in all 10 surveillance regions for the past eight to eleven weeks. However, several regions reported increases in percentage of visits for ILI and CLI.
The overall cumulative COVID-19 associated hospitalization rate is 98.4 per 100,000, with the highest rates in people 65 years of age and older (297.6 per 100,000) followed by people 50-64 years (148.6 per 100,000).
Hospitalization rates are cumulative and will increase as the COVID-19 pandemic continues.
Non-Hispanic American Indian or Alaska Native persons have an age-adjusted hospitalization rate approximately 5x non-Hispanic White persons, while non-Hispanic Black persons and Hispanic or Latino persons each have a rate approximately 4.5x that of non-Hispanic White persons.
Cumulative hospitalization rates for COVID-19 in adults (18-64 years) at this time are higher than cumulative end-of-season hospitalization rates for influenza over each of the past 5 influenza seasons.
For people 65 years and older, current cumulative COVID-19 hospitalization rates are within ranges of cumulative influenza hospitalization rates observed at comparable time points* during recent influenza seasons.
For children (0-17 years), cumulative COVID-19 hospitalization rates are much lower than cumulative influenza hospitalization rates at comparable time points* during recent influenza seasons.
Tests by age. Yellow bars are age 18 to 49. 
Nationwide during week 25, 0.8% of patient visits reported through ILINet were due to ILI. This percentage is well below the national baseline of 2.4%.
All ten regions are at low levels and below their region-specific baselines; however, Region 4 (South East) increased from 0.9% during week 24 to 1.3% during week 25; Regions 7 (Central), 8 (West) and 9 (South West/Coast) also reported slight increases.
Puerto Rico moves to "low" and Idaho insufficient data. Everywhere else ILI still minimal.
CLI and ILI up to 2.1% and 0.8% of ED visits respectively.
Total cumulative hospitalization rates by age.
Total cumulative hospitalization rates by race and ethnicity.
6.9% of deaths, still above the epidemic threshold.
