4 Disease Trends Chlamydia Infection Chlamydia infection has been the most frequently reported condition in Clark County since 2011, and has increased by 18.6% over the last year (Figure 2). In the state of Ohio, Chlamydia cases have also been steadily increasing. Gonococcal Infection The number of cases of gonococcal infection in Champaign County has been slowly increasing over time (19.2% increase in 2018) (Figure 2). This disease trend has been seen in the state of Ohio as well. Figure 2: Chlamydia Infection and Gonococcal Infection cases in Clark County, All data queried from Ohio Disease Reporting System (ODRS) data extract on 1/9/2019. Influenza-associated Hospitalizations In 2018, the total number of influenza-associated hospitalizations increased by 121.6% from 2017 (Figure 3). This number has been increasing since Figure 3: Influenza-associated Hospitalizations, Clark County, All data queried from Ohio Disease Reporting System (ODRS) data extract on 1/9/ of 9

5 Hepatitis C Chronic Infection The total number of Hepatitis C Chronic cases in Clark County has been slowly increasing over time. This is partially due to a change in 2016, which broadened the case definition for Hepatitis C Chronic infection, resulting in more cases being classified as Probable and fewer cases being classified as Confirmed. This is evidenced by the increase in total number of cases and a decrease in confirmed cases (Figure 4). Figure 4: Hepatitis C - Chronic cases by case classification status, Clark County, All data queried from Ohio Disease Reporting System (ODRS) data extract on 1/9/2019. Total Syphilis Total syphilis includes syphilis, congenital; syphilis, early; syphilis, late latent (>1 year) asymptomatic; syphilis, primary; syphilis, secondary; syphilis, stage unknown; syphilis, unknown duration or late. Total syphilis in Clark County has been decreasing since 2016 (Figure 5).

6 Hepatitis A There was a dramatic increase (85.6%) in the number of hepatitis A cases reported to the Clark County Combined Health District (CCCHD) in 2018 (Figure 6). In 2018, there were 36 total cases of hepatitis A reported in Clark County (30 confirmed, 6 suspect) (Table 2). Prior to 2018, the most recent confirmed case of hepatitis A occurred in 2011 (Table 2).

8 Timeliness of Disease Reporting Timely reporting of infectious diseases is important in identifying potential outbreaks and reducing disease burden. Public health relies on health care providers and laboratories for identification and prompt reporting of these communicable diseases. The Ohio Administrative Code identifies two quality indicators related to completeness and timeliness for nine reportable diseases (OAC (B) (2)): Meeting the median number of days between date of diagnosis and report to the health department in ODRS. Increasing the percent completeness for reportable infectious diseases in ODRS by age, race, ethnicity, and sex. The following reportable diseases were identified by the advisory committee as having the most value and opportunity to impact public health related to improved timeliness and completeness of reporting: Camplyobacteriosis, Cryptosporidiosis, E. Coli O157:H7 and Shiga toxin-producing E. Coli (STEC), Giardiasis, Influenza-associated hospitalization, Legionnaires disease, Pertussis, Salmonella, and Shigellosis. The reporting lag is the difference in days between the date of diagnosis and the date the case was reported to Champaign Health District (CHD). Weekends were removed in the median lag calculation and only confirmed and probable cases were included in the analysis. All diseases included are Class B reportable diseases with an expectation that they be reported to ODH by the next business day. Given this established standard, an appropriate proxy that should also be monitored to see continuous improvement is the percentage of reports (locally and aggregated at the state level) that meet or exceed the established standard (Ohio Department of Health, 2018). Table 4: Percent Completeness of Report and Median Days Reporting Lag for Selected Diseases* in Clark County, All data queried from Ohio Disease Reporting System (ODRS) data extract on 1/9/2019.

If blank, date of diagnosis defaulted to lab specimen collection date, then date of illness onset. 8 of 9

10 Clark County Combined Health District Hepatitis A Report 1/10/ Hepatitis A Update The Ohio Department of Health (ODH) has declared a statewide community outbreak of hepatitis A after observing an increase in cases linked to certain risk factors since the beginning of Outbreaks of hepatitis A are occurring in several states across the U.S., including neighboring states of Indiana, Kentucky, Michigan and West Virginia. Hepatitis A is a vaccine-preventable liver disease that usually spreads when a person ingests fecal matter - even in microscopic amounts - from contact with objects, food or drinks contaminated by the stool of an infected person. Hepatitis A can also be spread from close personal contact with an infected person, such as through sex. People at increased risk for hepatitis A in this outbreak include: People with direct contact with individuals infected with the virus Men who have sex with men People who use street drugs whether they are injected or not People who are incarcerated People experiencing homelessness People who have traveled to other areas of the U.S. currently experiencing outbreaks Symptoms of hepatitis A include fatigue, low appetite, stomach pain, nausea, clay-colored stools and jaundice. People with hepatitis A can experience mild illness lasting a few weeks to severe illness lasting several months. As of January 7, 2019, ODH reported 1,370 outbreak cases of Hepatitis A across 66 (75%) counties in Ohio (Table 1). Table 1: Hepatitis A Statewide Community Outbreak Case Statistics, Ohio, Data obtained from ODH, last updated 1/7/2019. Hepatitis A Statewide Community Outbreak, Ohio Case Statistics Number of cases 1370 Illness onset range 1/5/ /29/2018 Number of hospitalizations 856 (63%) Age range 2-81 years Sex 59% male Number of deaths 4 Number of counties with cases 66 (75%) Hepatitis A in Clark County There was a dramatic increase (85.6%) in the number of hepatitis A cases reported to the Clark County Combined Health District (CCCHD) in 2018 (Figure 1). In 2018, there were 36 total cases of hepatitis A reported in Clark County (30 confirmed, 6 suspect) (Table 2). Prior to 2018, the most recent confirmed case of hepatitis A occurred in 2011 (Table 2).
