data requests, prevalence by age and location.
Created by: RiverRock
Hey,
I'm mostly a doctor, not a coder, and I have no familiarity with R ... but I'm wondering if your code here would allow me to send a request in javascript that would return the flu prevalence (percentage of respiratory specimens testing positive) for a given age and locations?
I'm trying to code up a guide that would help physicians decide how to interpret a positive/negative rapid flu test (or whether to do one at all), but I need accurate prevalance data to start with (even just national prevalence would be an acceptable starting place, but even better if it could be targeted to patient's age and location).
Am I barking up the wrong tree, or can you help me? I'd appreciate any insight you can give me on how to get this up-to-date data on the fly for clinicians on the front-lines.
Thanks,
