Question

the Community Health Clinic you volunteer for aims to develop a strategy allowing the most vulnerable members of the community to have first access to the flu vaccine the clinic has collected data finding that the total number of people in their service area is 50000 20% of a community is over the age of 65 and immunocompromised and 11% of the community under 65 is immunocompromised while they Clinic wishes to market to all members of the community. immunocompromised people over 65 are their current priority. 1. Express the total number of people to which the health clinic must do outreach 2. Explain in one paragraph, how will you analyze in this scenario to arrive at the answer you will provide in number 2

Answer 1

The total number of people the clinic must reach out to is;

Total people = (27% of 50000) + ( 11% of 50000)

`\begin{gathered} \text{Total people =(}(27)/(100)*50000)\text{ + (}(11)/(100)*50000) \\ \text{ = ( 0.27}*50000)\text{ = (0.11}*50000) \\ \text{ =13500 + 5500 = 19,000 people} \end{gathered}`

2. I arrived at the answer above by adding the number of people over 65 years of age and the that of those under age 65. That is,

Add 27% of 50,000 to 11%
