*
There are no confidence intervals for rate ratios for MSM race/ethnicity or age because the proportion of men in each subgroup does not change as the proportion of MSM in the population changes.
#
There are no confidence intervals for women because the rate calculation uses U.S. census count, not an estimated number as with MSM and other men.
