5. Use the following equation to calculate the secondary attack rate using the data for the Star Hospital.
Answer —
none: 23-1 = # cases of SARS at the Star Hospital
111-1 = # at risk (employees of the Star Hospital who came in contact with the index case - an elderly man from the Amoy Apartment Complex)
((22) / (110))*1,000=200 per 1,000 population at risk of SARS
