a
The Asian ethnicities are organized by descending prevalence of influenza vaccination estimate.
b
Refers to aggregated data across all Asian ethnicities. Race/ethnicity was categorized as Hispanic or Latino, black, white, Asian, and “other.” Persons identified as Hispanic or Latino might be of any race. Persons identified as black, white, Asian, or other race are non-Hispanic. “Other” includes American Indian/Alaska Native and persons who identified multiple races. The five racial/ethnic categories are mutually exclusive. Asian ethnicities were defined as Asian Indian, Chinese, Filipino, Japanese, Korean, Vietnamese, and Other Asian.
c
Estimate might be unreliable because CI half-width is >10.
d
p<0.05 by t-test (comparing against white).
e
Estimate not reported because unweighted sample size for the denominator was <30.
f
Estimate not available as data were not available.
