Note.
These numbers do not represent reported case counts. Rather, these numbers
are point estimates, which result from adjustments of reported case
counts. The reported case counts have been adjusted for reporting delays
and for redistribution of cases in persons initially reported without an
identified risk factor, but not for incomplete reporting.
a
From the beginning of the epidemic through 2006.
b
Includes children of unknown race or multiple
races. Cumulative total includes 58 children of unknown race or
multiple races. Because column totals were calculated independently
of the values for the subpopulations, the values in each column may
not sum to the column total.
