Below are data that you collected for an internship with the Coconino County Health Department exploring a currently unknown communicable disease (illness that is spread from one person to another, from an animal to a person, or from a surface or a food), called Disease X. You have a hypothesis that a contaminant from PurinalE) dog food may cause Disease X. You recruit 10 individuals who worked at the Flagstaff Nestle Purina® Plant and 10 Flagstaff residents that did n_ot work at the plant to participate in your study.

All 20 individuals were free of Disease X at the start of the study. Note: once a participant got Disease X, they were no longer able to get Disease X again. “P NESTLE PURINA® PLANT WORKERS . . . .
