Average percent change in weekly case rates in a study of waterborne infectious diseases associated with exposure to tropical cyclonic storms, United States, 1966–2018. Estimated percentage change (shapes) and Bonferroni-corrected 95% CI (bars) are reported for each infectious disease and population-exposure threshold. Estimates are reported for week of the storm (week 0) and 1–3 weeks after the storm and are associated with exposure to >75 mm of storm-related rainfall.
