Part A: Introduction
Planning
Original idea
I want to investigate the relationship between the sample and the China mainland. The relationship between those reflects how does the time affect SARS trend in China.
Objectives
March and April are the most important point in the SARS list.
SARS is a very harmful disease, so the death number is the factor that reflects the situation.
Research
Part B: investigation
Background:
The first SARS event happened on the February of 2003. SARS is a disease, which spread very rapidly.
Guangzhou located at southern part of China, it is the biggest economic and cultural center in southern part. The weather of this location is very hot. And population is big. The first event about SARS is found in this location.
Beijing is located at northern part of China. As the capital of China, it had been developed to an international city. The biggest cultural and political center. Weather is cold and has a big population. But it is the biggest disaster area of China.
Aim:
· To investigate the relationship(distribution) of death number in March and April during the SARS storm in China mainland.
· To investigate the direction of SARS trended.
Hypothesis:
· I predict the current of SARS started from Guangzhou, which is a southern city to Beijing , which is a northern city. At the prophase of the SARS storm, Guangdong is the factor effect the SARS tainted number of China. Until the anaphase, the factor moves northward to Beijing. It is the reason Beijing becomes the biggest disaster area.
