CaliciNet Data

Number of Confirmed Norovirus Outbreaks Submitted to CaliciNet by State
September 1, 2017 – March 31, 2018

Confirmed Norovirus Outbreaks Submitted to CaliciNet, by Genogroup
September 1, 2016 – March 31, 2018 (n=1158)

Bar graph showing number of confirmed norovirus GI and GII outbreaks submitted to CaliciNet, by genogroup for September 2014 through January 2016. Norovirus GII account for more outbreaks throughout the time period, with a high of 170 outbreaks in February 2015.

Genotype Distribution of Norovirus Outbreaks
September 1, 2016 – August 31, 2017
(n=704)

Pie chart indicates genotype distribution of norovirus outbreaks (number = 180) from September 1, 2015 to January 15, 2016: 15% were GI.5; 18% GII.2; 15% GII.17; 15% GII.4 Sydney; and 37% were other genotypes.

* Dual typing for norovirus is being implemented by laboratories participating in CaliciNet. Dual typing is RT-PCR amplification of a partial region of both the polymerase gene and the capsid gene (region B-C) in a single reaction for genogroup I or genogroup II viruses.
