Atlanta

Epidemiological Brief

Atlanta's composite signal is shaped by concurrent mpox and moderate influenza A(H3N2) activity in Georgia. Mpox (clade II) reported 2 new cases in EW17 (50 cumulative YTD), yielding a normalized signal of 66.7/100—the highest mpox reading among southeastern US host cities. Georgia's mpox caseload (50 YTD) is the second highest among US host states. Influenza A(H3N2) contributed 8,083 weekly cases against the 52-week peak of 15,854 (normalized 51.0/100), indicating active mid-to-late season transmission. Measles: 0 new cases in EW18 (3 YTD); risk is low. No hantavirus detections. The composite Santé score is 30.7 (low). The mpox signal warrants attention: Atlanta's major international airport and dense social-event calendar create conditions for accelerated mpox transmission chains. JYNNEOS availability at clinics serving World Cup hospitality zones is recommended. Venue staff with potential mpox exposure risk should have vaccination records verified. Influenza medical infrastructure should remain active given continued H3N2 circulation. Sante Index v0 is a watching signal, not a forecast.
