1) Incidence rates for 1993–1999 have been updated using Resident Population: Monthly Postcensal Resident Population, by single year of age, sex, race, and Hispanic origin; accessed June 24, 2019.

2) Denominators for computing 2000–2009 incidence rates were obtained from the Intercensal Estimates of the Resident Population by Sex, Race, and Hispanic Origin for the United States: April 1, 2000 to July 1, 2010; accessed June 24, 2019.

3) Denominators for computing 2010–2019 incidence rates were obtained from the Monthly National Population Estimates by Age, Sex, Race, Hispanic Origin, and Population Universe for the United States: April 1, 2010 to December 1, 2020; accessed June 24, 2019.

4) Denominators for computing 2020–2023 incidence rates were obtained from the Annual Estimates of the Resident Population by Sex, Race, and Hispanic Origin for the United States: April 1, 2020 to July 1, 2023; accessed June 27, 2024.

Data for all years are updated through July 17, 2024.
