Notes:
Zero deaths are shown by a "—".
Rates are per 100,000 population for the specified age and sex group in the geographic area. Adding and subtracting the
number shown after the ± symbol from the rate creates an interval indicating that the true rate lies between the lower and
upper bounds with 95% statistical confidence.
"*" indicates the number of cases is too small (5 or less) to calculate a statistically reliable rate.
"**" indicates rate is greater than 0.0 but less than 0.1.
