Calculate the incidence rate.
# of new cases per time period: 1067
Population: 8,326,289
Formula: (number of new cases in a time period/population) X K
IR= (number of new cases in a time period/population) X K
IR= (1067/8,326,289) *100,000
= 1.28 * 10^-4 * 10^5 =12.8 ; This means that 12.8 people in every 100,000 will have the disease, or we can also say that 1 person in every 10,000 will have the disease.

Question 36 (1 point) If an incidence rate is defined as the number of new cases among the population at risk over a specified period of time, in the context of a cohort study, the incidence rate among the exposed refers to: OA) The number of new cases of disease in the population over a specific period of time Yc B) None of the above C) The ratio of the exposed cases to the unexposed non-cases over a specific period...
The incidence rate of a condition or behavior in the population refers to? a. the number of new cases of a condition or behavior divided by the total number of people who could develop the outcome times 1000 b. the number of cases of a condition or behavior at any point in time c. the number of cases of a condition or behavior divided by the total number of people being studied during a set time period d. the number...
Population of the city of Atlantis on 3/30/12 was 183,000. Number of new chronic bronchitis cases due to air pollution occurring between January 1 and June 30 = 26. Number of active chronic bronchitis cases due to air pollution according to the city registrar on June 30 = 264. Find the incidence rate per 100,000 population of chronic bronchitis cases for the six month period. Find the prevalence per 100,000 population of active chronic bronchitis cases as of June 3.
Calculate the incidence rate from October 1, 2004, to September
30, 2005, using the midpoint population (population alive on April
1, 2005) as the denominator. Express the rate per 100
population.

1) What is incidence? A. Number of new cases B. Number of existing cases C. Number of new + existing cases D. Number of individuals at risk 2) T F Chikungunya is the infectious disease that started in China but quickly spread to 37 countries through air travel. 3) T F Polio is an infectious disease that has been eradicated from the Western Hemisphere
Prevalence is: O the total number of cases at a specific point in time divided by the population at risk e the number of new cases occurring during a specifed period divided by the population at risk o the total number of cases at a specific point in time divided by the specified population. the number of new cases occurring during a specified period divided by the total population.
True or False: The incidence rate (IR), is computed by taking the ratio of the number of new cases of disease to the total number of person-time units available.

The employment incidence rate e = 15% per week, the unemployment incidence rate u = 0.8% per week. Calculate the equilibrium unemployment rate (assume the constant labour force). If the government enacted a policy that helped people to find a new job, and this policy raised the employment incidence rate to e = 20% per week, how would the equilibrium unemployment change (give the number (%) and the direction of the change (increase or decrease))?
