Answer:

Option A

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Sample size n=5900

Number of newly developed cases No.C=600

Generally the equation for Cumulative Incidence is mathematically given by

[tex]CI=\frac{No.C}{n}[/tex]

[tex]CI=\frac{600}{5900}[/tex]

[tex]CI=0.101[/tex]

[tex]CI= 10.1%[/tex]

Option A
