Sharing Question
What Page Should I Send Someone Who Asks What’s Going Around?
Send the weekly roundup for a broad national answer, the state overview for one place, the city page when the exact city matters, and the travel page when the question is about a trip.
15-second answer
- If the question is broad, send the weekly roundup first.
- If the question is about one state, send the state overview page.
- If the exact city matters, send the city overview or a city topic answer page.
- If the question is really about a destination, send the travel page rather than a generic state or city page.

FAQ
Quick questions about this answer
Should I send a disease page or an overview page first?
Send the overview page first unless the person is clearly asking about one disease, like flu or measles. Overviews are better when the question is still fuzzy.
What if I am not sure which page level to send?
Use the state overview if you are unsure, or use the travel page if the conversation is about a destination. Those are the safest first links.
