Notes:
Number of cases reported by outpatient clinics, hospitals,
doctors offices and other health facilities. These cases
represent testing for Michigan residents whether testing occurred
within the State of Michigan or in other states.
All Ages category includes records with unknown age (not shown in the table).
Both Sexes category includes records with unknown sex.
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. Please note that the number of cases is not limited to residents of the
geographic area but includes any case reported by health care providers in the area.
"*" indicates the number of cases is too small (5 or less) to calculate a statistically reliable rate.
"**" indicates that this age category is too broad to allow meaningful rates to be calculated.
Population estimates for 2005-2009 are from the U.S. Census Bureau. Population estimates for 2010 are presently not available.
Rate calculations for 2010 were obtained using 2009 population estimates.
Rates for 2010 will be updated as soon as 2010 population estimates are available.
