Answcr2。 Yes。 An cpideΠ lic can be dcsned as the occurrence of rnore cases
in a pIacc and tirnc than expectcd in the population being studied。 C)f thc
1101mcmbcrs without signs and symptoms of gastrocntcritis prior to thc
pⅡ griInagc,64(58%)devClopedsuch signs and symptoms during this trip。
This is clearly above thc expected or background rate of gastroenteritis in most
populations。 Gastroentcritis prevalcncc rates fron1recent surveys arc
approxiⅡ nately5°/。 and arc consistent with this population(2/112had such
slgns and symptoms at the timc of the pilgrimage)。
one could survey other grouPs of pⅡ griFns originating from the same
country to detcr∏ 1inc their rates of diarrhcal illness if the existencc of an
outbreak was uncertain。 Practically speaking,however,an attack rate of58°/。

Attack ratcs werc high for thosc who ate Hce,meat,and tO△ 1ato sauce。
Howevcr,rneat is the likely culprit becausc it was thc Only food associated with
a high attack ratc among thosc who ate it,but a low attack ratc among those
who did not。 Almost all(63炻 4)who ate meat also atc thc Othcr itcms,which
probably accounts for the high attack rates for thosc itcrns,too。
