Figure 4. Lyme disease incidence by age group and sex in MarketScan enrollees (A, C, E) and from surveillance (B, D, F) by geographic category of Lyme disease endemicity (A– B, high-incidence states; C–D, neighboring states; E–F, low-incidence states), United States, 2010–2018. Incidence was calculated as diagnoses/100,000 enrollees in MarketScan or cases/100,000 population among each subcategory. Scales for each y-axis differ substantially to underscore overall age-related incidence patterns but do not permit direct comparison of the magnitude of Lyme disease between systems or geographic categories.
