[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] 40% or about 37 have no know health condition. Since the flu vaccine is 70% affective then you could surmise that about about 12 vaccinated and 25 unvaccinated children die per year on average. [/quote] That's not an accurate calculation. You are applying the 70% to the wrong group. [/quote] 40% of the 92 children have no health conditions (37) 37% of all children are vaccinated so I will assume that 37% of the 37 children have been vaccinated (this is an estimate because they won't say exactly how many were vaccinated) (14) 30% of people that get vaccinated still get the flu... so 30% of 14 is 4.2 So of the 37 children with no health issues 4 were vaccinated and 33 were not. (so that is a a big difference) Thanks for the correction. I should never do math in a hurry.[/quote]
