Next: Slide 3.5

Figure 3.4. From 1990 through 2009, rates for acute hepatitis B decreased for all race/ethnicity groups, except AI/ANs. During 1993–2003, AI/ANs experienced small spikes in rates that stabilized and closely matched rates of other racial/ethnic populations beginning in 2004. The incidence rate of acute hepatitis B was <4.25 cases per 100,000 population for all race/ethnic populations from 2002 through 2009. In 2009, the rate of acute hepatitis B was lowest for APIs and Hispanics (0.67 cases per 100,000 population for each group) and highest for non-Hispanic blacks (1.68 cases per 100,000 population).
