I attached an Excel file to sheets the first sheet (Part1) and the second sheet (Part2)
Question description
Part 1:
There was a street festival in Downtown Springfield over the weekend, after which there was an increased number of food poisonings reported at area hospitals.
The Springfield Department of Public Health conducted a survey of people who were stricken with illness, and an equal number of people were reported attending the festival, but were not stricken.
The questionnaire sought to determine probably cause of the outbreak.Use the attached data to conduct a Odds Ratio analysis for the 6 foods, and discuss the resulting Odds Ratios in a report format that offers recommendations for future street festivals
Part 2:
As an emerging Industrial Hygienist / Epidemiologist, you are interested in rates at which minor and major injuries occur due to bicycling in the population of Springfield residents.You have interviewed 1,000 residents (who ride bicycles on a weekly bases) for relevant information on
- Age
- BMI
- Weekly Mileage (average over a 5 year period)
- Minor injury history
- Major injury history (defined as needing hospitalization)
- Plot the minor accident data to determine different metrics of Risk and Rate for age group normalized by
- Population
- Miles ridden per week
- Guidance for Risk and Rate by age group is presented in the lecture, and in the paper on vehicular accidents and fatal accidents posted to Kodiak
- Repeat for accidents grouped by BMI rather than age
You will now conduct some exploratory analysis using these data.
