Note. AIRR = adjusted incidence rate ratio; AOR = adjusted odds ratio; CI = confidence interval; HSV-2 = herpes simplex virus type 2; STI = sexually transmitted infection. Adjusted for age, race/ethnicity, education, employment, marital status, family income, health insurance, and regular health care provider. Education omitted as a covariate in the regression because of collinearity in the model.
AIRR based on Poisson regression.
