Focusing on sepsis as an example, for the worst-case calculation we assumed 1 141 000 sepsis hospitalisations annually, a 5% MRSA prevalence, along with test characteristics of 95% sensitivity and 95% specificity.
When he writes, for example, that the worst customer to collect money from on his paper route when he was 11, Mrs. Vandermeister, was "700 years old, possibly 800, and permanently attached to an aluminum walker," you begin to wonder if we're entering James Frey territory.

For example, in the worst case of the traffic situation (in which all vehicles are stuck in a traffic jam and can move only very slowly, if at all, where we assume a speed on lane i of SP[i] = 10 km/h) then the average distance between adjacent vehicles on lane i (denoted by davg[i]) is davg[i] = 10 m and in the best traffic situation (i.e. if SP[i] = 160 km/h) we assume davg[i] = 55 m.
For example, in the worst scenario modelled here, "avoiders" were more than six times more at risk of becoming sick compared to "normal" individuals (see Fig. 2B) or had a life-expectancy reduced by 30 years (see Fig. 3A).
The West Coast algae bloom and the Gulf Coast dead zone are just two of several examples of the worst-case scenario for the oceans, and therefore for all life on the planet, playing out right in front of our faces.
In 1988, for example, one of the worst years for pollution in the decade, New York's peak levels of ozone and carbon monoxide exceeded Federal health limits by more than 50percentt.
Our array of alternative schemes from left to right is in a certain sense systematic, namely scheme A, for example, is the worst for the "poorest" and the best for the "richest", while rules E to G are best for the lowest two classes.
