Estimation of norovirus season time markers using BioSense data on emergency department (ED) visits mapped by chief complaint to diarrhea subsyndrome, United States, 2009–2011. Observed season time markers (solid vertical lines) as defined by norovirus outbreak data are labeled as follows: season onset (O), season peak (P), and season end (E). Applying these rules yielded estimates for each season marker (dotted vertical lines) within 2 weeks of observed dates for the 2009–2010 season and within
