132 individuals that were age 80 were combined with the individuals aged 75–79 for the age adjustment calculations.

b

Total person-years by year: 413,511.3 (2014); 440,530.4 (2015), 468,131.5 (2016), 490,317.4 (2017), 520,511.2 (2018).

c

The AAPC is not reported for Stage 0 given the small number of cases which does not allow for an accurate calculation.
