Abstract

In 2019, a geographically focal cluster of 3 Powassan virus neuroinvasive disease cases occurred in New Jersey. We conducted a serosurvey of 273 adult area residents and estimated that immunoglobulin M seroprevalence was 0.31% (95% confidence interval [CI],. 04%-1.00%) and 23% (95% CI, 7%-100%) of infections result in neuroinvasive disease.
