Suppose the number of babies born during an 8-hour shift at a hospital's maternity wing follows a Poisson distribution with a mean of 4 an hour. Some people believe that the presence of a full moon increases the number of births that take place. Suppose during the presence of a full moon, County Hospital experienced eight consecutive hours with more than five births. Based on this fact, comment on the belief that the full moon increases the number of births.
◦ The belief is not supported as the probability of observing this many births is 0.00000457.
◦ The belief is supported as the probability of observing this many births would be 0.215.

Did you know?

There are major differences in the metabolism of morphine and the illegal drug heroin. Morphine mostly produces its CNS effects through m-receptors, and at k- and d-receptors. Heroin has a slight affinity for opiate receptors. Most of its actions are due to metabolism to active metabolites (6-acetylmorphine, morphine, and morphine-6-glucuronide).

Did you know?

As many as 28% of hospitalized patients requiring mechanical ventilators to help them breathe (for more than 48 hours) will develop ventilator-associated pneumonia. Current therapy involves intravenous antibiotics, but new antibiotics that can be inhaled (and more directly treat the infection) are being developed.
