Note:
1) Denominators for computing incidence rates for year 1993 were obtained from Quarterly Estimates of the United States Foreign-Born and Native Resident Populations: April 1, 1990–July 1, 1999;
2) Denominators for computing the 1994-2018 rates are based on the U.S. Census Bureau, Current Population Survey via Data Ferrett for 1994-2018. This site has since been disabled by the U.S. Census Bureau. Current Population Survey estimates do not include institutionalized populations; and
3) U.S. Census Bureau’s MDAT tool for 2019–2022; accessed July 14, 2023.
