Summarize the techniques used in the Epiville SARS simulation outbreak investigation (suggested length of 5–8 slides) by doing the following:
1. List the different surveillance methods used to ascertain cases.
2. Determine the number of cases that meet the case definition for suspect cases and probable cases.
3. Describe the mode of transmission for both the Amoy Apartment Complex and the Star Hospital in the Epiville SARS simulation outbreak.
4. Describe the process used to develop the working hypothesis for this outbreak, including the process used to identify the agent and the process used to identify the mode of transmission.
5. Explain the best measure to describe the epidemic in the Epiville SARS simulation and how the measure is calculated.
