  4.

  5. What can analytics do for you? • Help you decide how to present your data: • Total Case Count: number of cases in a population/area in a given amount of time or on a certain date. • Crude Rate: number of new cases in a specified population during a period of time, usually expressed as the number of cases per 100,000 population at risk (normalizes the measure for population density). • Age-Adjusted Rate: calculated by multiplying each crude rate by the weight in that age group of the U.S. standard population, and summing the products (normalizes the measure for population density and age distribution).
