Abbreviations: MSs, Member States; –, Data not reported.

a

Y, yes; N, no; A, aggregated data; C, case‐based data.

b

Sentinel surveillance; no information on estimated coverage. Notification rate not estimated.

c

No surveillance system.

d

Sentinel system; notification rates calculated with an estimated population coverage of 91% in 2021–2022. No information on estimated coverage in 2018–2020, so notification rate cannot be estimated.

e

Cases reported by the United Kingdom for the period 2018–2019 were also taken into account for this estimation (EU‐28). Data for the United Kingdom were collected for the 2018–2019 period, since it was still an EU MS at that time. However, on 1 February 2020, it became a third country.
