Do you have confidence intervals for the hazard rate? If they're asymmetric they were probably computed on the log scale and then transformed. So you could simply back-transform, at which point I wouldn't be surprised to see they are symmetric. I could be wrong, though. -- JVVerkuilen, PhD jvverkuilen@gmail.com "Out beyond ideas of wrong-doing and right-doing there is a field. I'll meet you there.
