Why Is This Important?

Data Notes

  • Data have been age-adjusted to the U.S. 2000 standard population.
  • 2020 data are considered preliminary and should not be used in trend analyses; an approximate 10% decrease in the number of cancer cases diagnosed in 2020 compared to 2019, is partly due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
