In 2022, there was an outbreak of Demon Pox at Toronto Metropolitan University (population
45,000), that resulted in 80 per 1,000 students falling ill. After catching the virus, the
average person had the illness for 7 days. The cost of treating one case of the disease was
$51/case/day. Later in 2022, the disease spread to the University of Waterloo (population
25,000), whose population closely resembles Toronto Metropolitan University with respect to
age, sex, and other common demographics. The City of Waterloo Public Health (WPH)
department wants to know how bad this will get. Using this data, please provide WPH with
answers to the following questions. Please show your calculation so that we can understand
the sources of error. Assume there are 365 days in 2022 and 365 days in 2023.
a) How many people at University of Waterloo are likely to get the disease in 2023?
b) On any given day, how many people at University of Waterloo will have the disease?
c) Waterloo Public Health estimates that the cost of treating Demon Pox at the
University of Waterloo is $78/case/day. Under this assumption, please calculate (and
show) how much money the University of Waterloo will spend in 2023 to treat all
cases of the disease?
d) Please present a calculation that shows the difference in expected spending on
treatment of the disease at the University of Waterloo (2023) compared with what
Toronto Metropolitan University spent in 2022. Using this calculation, will the
University of Waterloo spend more in 2023 to fight this disease than Toronto
Metropolitan University did in 2022?
e) What factor or factors account for the difference in spending between the two
schools?
