Review the research study and analyze the health issue at its core. Use the research you conducted in your Module One journal assignment to help you analyze the health issue. Prompt:
To begin, review the final project research study, “A Novel Coronavirus Outbreak: A Teaching Case-Study.” Then, address the following critical elements in your short paper:
1.Health Issue: In this section of your final project, you will analyze the health issue that is the focus of the research study.
a)Describe the risk factors associated with the public health issue. Support your descriiption with evidence from the research study and your independent research.
b)Describe the mode of transmission of the public health issue. Support your descriiption with evidence from the research study and one example from your independent research.
c)Determine the incidence and prevalence of the health issue using the data from Table 1 of the research study to perform the appropriate calculations.
i)Tip: To calculate incidence, use the figures in Table 1, pp. 12–13, and assume that the global population during the beginning of the Coronavirus pandemic was 7.821 billion or 7,821,000,000.
d)Determine the mortality rate of the health issue using the data from the research study to perform the appropriate calculations.
I)Tip: Use the figures in Table 2 on p. xiv, and assume the total number of confirmed cases from Table 1. Interpret the odds ratio to determine the strength of association between the potential sources of exposure and the disease using the odds ratio given in Table 2.
