epidemiology: (pubh – 6035 – 2) module 3 problem set

The risk ratio associated with swimming in the upper deck pool of gastroenteritis is calculated by dividing the number of cases (incidences) of gastroenteritis associated with swimming in the upper deck pool by the total number of people who swam in that pool. For example, if 10 out of 100 people who swam in the pool experienced gastroenteritis, then the risk ratio would be 0.10 or 10%.
