Data has been collected to identify specific cases of people who are infected with a dangerous virus. Your organization has an interest in knowing where the population is most affected in an effort to move resources to areas that need them.

 

 

 

Create a bar chart using Microsoft Excel® and the data provided in the Cases by City document to identify the cities with the highest counts of cases.

Write a 350- to 525-word report of your analysis of the data. Include an answer to the following questions:

 

  • What are the top five cities for infected cases?
  • How many infected cases does each of those cities have?
  • What is the prevalence rate per 100,000 people?
