As of Nov. 1, 5,526 cases of MIS-C have been reported to the agency, including 48 deaths. Every state but Vermont has reported at least one MIS-C case.

Below is a breakdown of cases by state. The CDC uses case ranges, instead of exact case counts, to protect the privacy of patients and families, as some states have only a small number of cases. Population data is from the U.S. Census Bureau.
