Jaybo:If you read my previous post, I call into question the validity of using sampling methodologies that medical/health professionals would use for the purpose of gathering data for violent deaths.
You do but you give no convincing reason. The statement about ‘mutually exclusive event’s’ is nonsensical. Cluster sampling methods are often used in disaster situations (hurricanes, earthquakes, wars, epidemics, etc). The fact that hurricanes and earthquakes are ‘mutually exclusive events’ has nothing to do with anything.
