Notes:
Underlying causes of death for 1991-1998 were classified in accordance with the ninth revision of
the International Classification of Diseases (ICD-9). Underlying causes of death after 1998
were classified in accordance with the tenth revision (ICD-10). With each revision there are
differences in classifying the underlying causes of death. Therefore, statistics based
on one revision may not be directly comparable to the other revision.
Zero deaths are shown by a "—".
All Ages include unknown age.
