Appendix S1 - Spatio-Temporal Patterns of Barmah Forest Virus Disease in Queensland, Australia

An example using actual data from the study sample using direct standardisation method to calculate standardised incidence rates (SIRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CI) of BFV disease only including six SLAs in Queensland is shown in below tables: Table 1(a): Population data by age, gender and total for each SLA. Table 1(b): Number of BFV cases by age, gender and total for each SLA. Table 1(c): Calculation of BFV incidence rate (105) by age, gender and total for each SLA. Table 1(d): Calculation of expected BFV number (BFV incidence/105 divided by total population by age, gender) for each SLA. Table 1(e): Calculation of SIR and CI of BFV incidence rate (/105) for each SLAPopulation data by age, gender and total for each SLA. (DOC)
