Notes: 1. All confidence interval adjusted for clustering effect using Intercooled Stata version 8 with the Standard Enumeration Area (SEA) as clusters 3. Variables included in the model were education, age, sex, marital status, employment and religion. 2. Samples sizes (were drawn from groups ever had sex).
