Calling the data set

COVID <- read_csv('/Users/eabban/College Stuff/R Studio/biontech_adolescents.csv')

Grouping them

COVID_pla <- COVID |>
  filter(group == "placebo") 

COVID_vac <- COVID |>
  filter(group =="vaccine")

Counting the number of people and the outcomes

n_pla <- nrow(COVID_pla) #number of people who were given placebo

n_vac <- nrow(COVID_vac) #number of people who were given vaccines

INF_COVID_pla <- sum(COVID_pla$outcome == "COVID-19")

INF_COVID_vac <- sum(COVID_vac$outcome == "COVID-19")

Finding the p-value

p0 <- INF_COVID_pla/n_pla

alpha <- 0.05
result <- binom.test(x = INF_COVID_vac, n = n_vac, p = p0, alternative = "less")
result

    Exact binomial test
