Note: Previously published 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; Denominators for computing 2000–2009 incidence rates were obtained from the Intercensal Estimates of the Resident Population by Single Year of Age and Sex for States and the United States: April 1, 2000 to July 1, 2010, and Denominators for computing incidence rates for 2010–2020 were obtained from the Annual Estimates of the Resident Population by Single Year of Age and Sex for the United States: April 1, 2010 to July 1, 2020; accessed June 22, 2021.
