Table 3.

Results of unadjusted Bernoulli analyses for space–time clustering within Atlanta (ATL) and Tampa/St. Petersburg (TAM) of adverse events associated with canine rabies vaccination during a 24-month period (2002/01–2003/12)

City Coordinates for most likely clustera Radius (km) for most likely cluster Time year/month (number of month) for most likely cluster Observed/expected ratio LLRb P-value

Case and non-case data coordinates were based on geocoded addresses for individual dogs. Scan window was ≤25% of the geographic area and ≤25% of the study period.

a

There were no other statistically significant clusters identified.
