 Incidence Density:

New cases = 3; period of time at risk of developing the disease = 33 individuals / years

x = 3 * 100/33 = 9.1 cases / 100 individuals year

The cumulative incidence:

number of new cases in the population at risk = 3; number of people free of the disease at the beginning of the study = 7;

x = 3 * 100/7 = 43 cases per 100 people for 7 years

The average duration

total number of years with the disease = 13; number of cases = 3

dm = 13/3 = 4.3 years

Prevalence

number of sick people = 2; number of people exposed = 6

P = 2 * 100/6 = 33.3 = 33 cases / 100 people

Lethality

number of deaths = 1, number of cases = 3

l = 1 * 100/3 = 33.3%
