Foodborne Case Study

Hello,

This is a very straightforward assignment. Please simply follow the instructions given and make sure you do not skip anything and follow everything in detail, and we will do good. Once again, this is very straightforward you just need to make sure you follow the instructions given and DO NOT add or subtract anything until told so.

Make sure your spelling and grammar is on point. That is a BIG PART of the grade, so please just make sure you check grammar, and spelling 2X (to double check)

This is a case study that you will be doing. Once again, IT IS A CASE STUDY.

I will attach the document that includes the questions and tables for the case study, please simply download it and then open it.

PLEASE DO NOT INCLUDE YOUR ANSWERS ON THE ATTACHED DOCUMENT. IT IS FOR REFERECING ONLY!!

YOU WILL INCLUDE THE QUESTIONS ON A SEPRARTE WORD DOCUMENT, ALONG WITH YOUR OWN ANSWERS TO EACH QUESTION.

PLEASE INCLUDE THE QUESTIONS AND BELOW IT INCLUDE YOUR ANSWERS. MAKE IT CLEAR!!

This is what you’re doing VERY SIMPLY! I will explain ONE MORE TIME.

I attached a Word document. You will simply download it and open it. On the word document it has questions, and tables to answer for this specific case study. You will then open a separate word document include the questions, and tables along with your answers to the tables and questions. MAKE IT CLEAR!

VERY SIMPLE & SWEET!

I will include the formula below for your reference so it can help you answer the questions and tables. PLEASE USE IT!! IF YOU DO NOT USE IT, THEN WE WILL GET THE QUESTIONS AND TABLES WRONG!! USE THE GIVEN FORMULA FOR THE TABLES AND QUESTIONS IF NEEDED. THE FORMULA IS BELOW.

YOU NEED TO COMPLETE ALL THE QUESTIONS AND TABLES FOR THIS CASE STUDY.

The basic formula is Formula: Number of females/Total number in that age group52 (total number of females in age group 6-10)/94 (total number for female and male in age group 6-10 combined) x 100 = 55.32% Male age group 6-10= (42/94) x 100 = 44.68%

94 (total number for age group 6-10)/108 (total number by gender) x 100= 87.04

Use the same formula for each age group.

There will be a lot of AR calculations in the next case study. Remember the formula is: ill/ill+well (total attended) x 100. Also round your answers to the nearest hundredth to receive full credit. Example:

Food item: Meat Loaf

Total ill: 5

Total ill and well: 62

5/62= 0.08064516 x 100= 8.06451613 then round to the nearest hundredth which would make the answer 8.06.

AR: 8.06%

Also, make sure to provide an answer when you see the words ‘Interpret your findings’. This would include a statement of the magnitude of the effect based on the rate ratio (or relative risk [RR]).

You will calculate RRs for place and then food items. So, if one of the foods had an RR of 3.92, your interpretation of the RR would be that “those who ate that food were nearly 4 times more likely to have gastroenteritis”. If any of the RRs are well below 1.0, that would mean the food was protective of gastroenteritis ~ meaning those who ate that item were less likely to be ill. For example, if an RR for a food was 0.32, you could state that “those who ate that food were 68% less likely to have gastroenteritis”. You find the % by subtracting the lower RR from 1.0.

round your answer to the hundredths. This applies to the Attack Rates and the RRs in the case study. If the calculation gives you 2.679, put down 2.68 instead of 2.7 or 3.0.

FOR FULL CREDIT ROUND ALL ANSWERS TO THE hundredths.

(PLEASE MAKE SURE YOU DO THIS!)

MAKE SURE YOU DO YOUR BEST AND TAKE YOUR TIME ON THIS!! AND GIVE IT YOUR BEST!!

BE CLEAR, NEAT AND ORGAIZNED.
