Rates are per 100,000 Manhattan residents. Denominator data are based on 2007 intercensal population estimates from the NYC DOHMH Bureau of Epi Services (2000-2014 files). Data are age adjusted to the US 2000 Standard Population.

Cases were assigned to one of five mutually exclusive race/ethnicity categories: non-Latino White, non-Latino Black, non-Latino Asian, Latino, and non-Latino other. Non-Latino cases identified with more than one race were categorized as non-Latino other.

Non-Latino Whites differed from non-Latino Blacks, Latinos, and non-Latino Asians. Non-Latino Blacks also differed from Latinos and non-Latino Asians. Latinos did not differ from non-Latino Asians.

Non-Latino Blacks differed from non-Latino Whites, Latinos, and non-Latino Asians. Non-Latino Whites did not differ from Latinos or non-Latino Asians. Latinos did not differ from non-Latino Asians.
