disease incidence
How is Incidence Rate Calculated?
The incidence rate is calculated by dividing the number of new cases by the population at risk during the same time period. The formula is:
Incidence Rate = (Number of New Cases) / (Population at Risk) x Time Period
For example, if there are 50 new cases of a disease in a population of 10,000 over one year, the incidence rate would be:
Incidence Rate = (50 / 10,000) x 1 year = 0.005 or 5 per 1,000 people per year
