ISSS608 2017-18 T1 Assign FOO CELONG RAYMOND/IdentifyGroundZero
From my preliminary analysis, I noticed two sets of symptoms which were manifested by population at different time. Without any evidence of the symptoms being the cause of a single outbreak, my analysis of the ground zero will begin by assuming they are two different outbreak until I can prove otherwise during the course of the analysis.
I know that the first 7 symptoms that were first observed on 18-May are:-
- Aches
- Breathing problem
- Chills
- Cough
- Fatigue
- Fever
- Sweat
Downtown is the ground zero of the outbreak because it has the highest number of post across all 7 symptoms. It is also observed that the top 5 city zones are in the same order across all symptoms. Downtown have the highest number of posts followed by uptown, eastside, lakeside and finally suburbia.
The most affected areas seem to form a cone shape which started from downtown and spreads out towards the east and becomes more diffused as it spreads out.
Symptoms that were first observed on 19-May are:-
- Diarrhea
- Flu
- Nausea
- Pain
- Vomit
