Questions

You have now reached the step in the outbreak investigative to conduct a epidemiology study to determine if your hypothesis is correct. Not all outbreak investigations require an epidemiology study. If the cause and method of the outbreak were determined through descriptive epidemiology an analytical study may not contribute to policy development or additional interventions. However, there many factors to consider when deciding to conduct an epidemiology study.

  1. Consider the information you have collected in your investigation, the outbreak population, the resources (staff, travel, supplies,…) necessary to conduct a study, political, legal or other pressures, and sound epidemiology principles. Why or why not would you conduct an epidemiology study?
  2. What is the difference between a case control study and a cohort study?

  4. Who of the at-risk population would you include as study participants? Why?
