Cavendish University Uganda (CUU) is implementing a 2-year health project called CUUX which started Q2 2021. This project's goal was to reduce the number of cases of “Informatixphobia” to 11,000 cases or less and improve treatment cure to at least 85% by reducing the number of patients lost and died. CUU hired you as a Health Informatics Associate for the project and you have summarized the project data in the table above.
a) Using MS Excel, represent this information using two appropriate graphs for treatment cure and number of cases for a meeting. The graphs should be placed in the answer sheet using the format below i.e side-by-side (10 marks).
Graph 1
Graph 2
b) Has CUUX project achieved all its goals? Give reasons to explain your answer (5 marks).
c) The World Health Organization (WHO) recommends a death rate of less than 5% of patients who catch Informatixphobia, what does this mean for CUUX project results? Recommend any actions that the CUUX project director may need to undertake. (10 marks)
