B. The number of all cases of a specific disease or condition in a population at a given point in time relative to the population at the same point in time is included in incidence rates.
C. Incidence rate refers to the number of new cases of a disease in those exposed to the disease.
D. The term incidence rate refers to the percentage of deaths in a specific period of time from a specific cause.

 A

Explanation:

Incidence rates describe the occurrence of new cases of a disease or condition in a community during a period of time relative to the size of the population at risk for that disease or condition during that same time period. In calculating this rate, the numerator is the number of new cases during the specific period of time, and the denominator consists only of those who are at risk for developing the disease or condition during the specific period of time. A prevalence rate is the number of all cases of a specific disease or condition in a population at a given point in time relative to the population at the same point in time. Attack rates document the number of new cases of a disease in those exposed to the disease. The percentage of deaths in a specific period of time from a specific cause refers to the mortality rate.

for me i would

1.   break up the project into simpler tasks

2. prioritize the tasks

3. create an action plan

4. create a schedule

5. delegate work

this would be logical sequence, because:

1.   i need to know what the simple tasks are

2. i need to know which ones need to be done in order of importance

3. make a plan to get everything done in the correct order

4. set up the times and days for completion

5. hand out tasks to other to get it all done.
