The peak of the outbreak occurred in the last week of November. A total of 71 cases in five states -- Delaware (2 cases), New Jersey (33 cases), New York (22 cases), Pennsylvania (13 cases), and South Carolina (1 case) -- have been reported to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).
