Dear peers,  (Edited version)

I wish to compute a 95% confidence interval for a statistical indicator called "ratio of female to male Relative Illness Ratio (RIR)":

= RIR for female / RIR for male

=  {(Ci/Σ Ci) / (Ni/Σ Ni)}female / {(Ci/Σ Ci) / (Ni/Σ Ni)male}

Where:

Relative Illness Ratio (RIR)= (Ci/Σ Ci) / (Ni/Σ Ni)

Ci: number of cases of laboratory-confirmed influenza in a given age group

Σ Ci: Sum of cases of laboratory-confirmed influenza in all age groups

Ni: Population in a given age group

Σ Ni: Sum of populations in all age groups.

 I appreciate your thoughts, ideas and suggestions. If you know any relevant citation/ reference/ textbook, kindly share and discuss with us.

Thank you.

Yours sincerely,

Kam
