The dynamics of how a new virus transmits through humon populations are not well understood. One theory is that it is being tronsmitred from human to human through exposure to mosquitoes of workploces. If this proves to be true, installing mosquito nets at workploces would provide employees with sufficient protection against the new virus. The scientific evidence does not yet indicate whether this hypothesis is carrect. During an epidemic in a foreign country, a Canadian researcher working under the auspices of on institution eligible for Agency funding proposes a research protocal that aims to test this hypothesic. The methodology essentiolly consists of recruiting employees working for different employers, randomly assigning them to Group A (using mosquito nets) or Group B (control group not using mosquito nets, and assessing the relative effectiveness of mosquito nets by observing the incidence of the virus in these two groups.In order to facilitate the recruitment of participants, the researcher plans to imite the employers to be part of the research team. By doing so, the researcher hopes that the research will be better publicized, that the employees will feel more engaged in the research, and that recommendations based on the research results will be implemented.
