Would someone please send me the Million Population numbers used to calculate age-adjusted death rates for cancer. I have the 1940 numbers, but isn't there a 1970 (?) population used for calculating age-adjusted death rates for cancer? That is the one I need. 2. How do I calculate confidence intervals for age-adjusted death rates? Or is this even done? All the numbers are artificial, so what ones would I use in my CI calculations? Thanks! **************************************************** Lesa Barnes -- lbarnes@co.jefferson.wa.us Community Health Analyst Assessment Coordinator Jefferson County Health & Human Services 615 Sheridan Port Townsend WA 98368-2476 phone: 360-379-4470 fax: 360-385-9401 **************************************************** .
