The spatial map reveals that hospitals such as Port Hospital and Military Hospital are major centers for cases, represented by larger circles, while St. Mark’s Maternity Hospital and Central Hospital show smaller caseloads. A significant number of cases are recorded as “Missing,” indicating a gap in the data collection process.
The epidemic curve (Figure 1) shows a clear peak in case counts occurring around October 2014 across all age groups, with a rapid increase followed by a slower decline. The youngest age group (0-4 years) consistently has the highest case count, suggesting heightened vulnerability during this outbreak. Age groups 5-9 and 10-14 years follow similar patterns, but with slightly lower counts.
A table summarizing the number of cases by hospital.
| Hospital | Cases |
|---|---|
| Port Hospital | 1762 |
| Missing | 1469 |
| Military Hospital | 896 |
| Other | 885 |
| Central Hospital | 454 |
| St. Mark’s Maternity Hospital (SMMH) | 422 |
The table (Figure 2) highlights that Port Hospital recorded the highest number of cases (1,762), followed by Missing (1,469). The smaller counts for St. Mark’s Maternity Hospital (422) and Central Hospital (454) indicate their potentially more limited capacity or differing patient demographics.
The interactive table provides a detailed breakdown of hospitalization data, including hospital affiliation, date of hospitalization, patient outcomes, demographic information (gender and age), BMI, and the presence of fever.
