  1. No. Counties, number of counties within clusters; No. Obs, number of observed cases; No. Exp, number of expected cases; LLR, log likelihood ratio; RR, relative risk of the cluster compared with the rest of the country; %, the proportion of the population or cases in cluster to the total during the clustering time.
  2. Significant clusters with P < 0.05.
  3. ※1: Primary cluster.
  4. #3–7: Secondary clusters.
