Norovirus is a common cause of food poisoning causing nausea, vomiting and diarrhea. In healthy individuals, the disease is typically self-limiting with symptoms resolving on their own in 1 to 3 days. Spread of this disease is easy to control with handwashing as transmission is typical from infected fecal matter to ingestion via food. What risk group would this organism be considered? risk group 4 risk group 2 risk group 3
Farhan A.
Noroviruses cause roughly 21 million cases of gastroenteritis ("stomach flu") annually in the United States. A study examined the effectiveness of a new norovirus vaccine. Healthy adult volunteers received, at random, either the vaccine or a placebo. They were then exposed to the norovirus. In all, 14 of the 38 vaccinated subjects suffered from gastroenteritis compared with 27 of the 39 subjects who received a placebo. We want to know if this study provides evidence that an outcome of gastroenteritis depends on the treatment received. Under a null hypothesis of no association between treatment and outcome, what is the contribution to the chi-square statistic (i.e., chi-square component) for the gastroenteritis and vaccine cell of the two-way table? A) 0.25 B) 1.92 C) 2.02 D) 2.13
