But at the moment, the apparent increase could be attributed to any number of factors, such as better diagnosis, or randomfluctuations in the incidence of the disease, rather than the start of an epidemic.
Both ATLAS and CMS have seen a number of these predicted patterns often enough to pique interest, but not (yet) often enough to constitute proof that they came from Higgses, rather than being randomfluctuations in the background of non-Higgs decays.
