• "Low" is a burden less than or equal to 10 per 100,000

• "Moderate" is a burden greater than 10 and less than or equal to 50 per 100,000

• "Moderately High" is a burden greater than 50 and less than or equal to 100 per 100,000

• "High" is a burden greater than 100

Usage

class_burden(burden)

Arguments

burden

numeric vector as calculated by score_burden

Value
