**Exercise 4** The table below gives data on the 1083
participants in a vaccine trail. Of the 549 patients who received
the vaccine, 11 developed type B hepatitis. Of the 534 patients who
did not receive the vaccine, 70 developed the virus. Do these data
indicate that there is a different rate of incidence of hepatitis
between vaccinated and not vaccinated participants?
| | Hepatitis | No Hepatitis |
Total |
|----------|-----------|--------------|-------|
|Vaccinated| 11 | 538
| 549 |
|Not Vaccinated | 70 | 464
| 534 |
