NOTE: These tables should be used only for race/Hispanic ethnicity comparisons. See Table 21 for age-specific cases and rates and Tables 14–16 for total and sex-specific cases and rates. Cases in the 0–4 age group may include cases due to perinatal transmission. No population data exist for unknown sex, unknown age, or other/unknown race; therefore rates are not calculated.
