Can we win the prevention argument using control groups?
1. take two cities of relative size & deprivation
2. exclude one from access to voluntary groups support
3. control for the variables
4. compare & contrast
5. win the argument with a monetary figure of certain types of support..?
Obviously it’s not this simple but it’s been done in other parts of the world where these differentials are naturally occurring – (see video on comparing success rates of various malaria preventions).
So if a city has an Age Concern are there 2% fewer hospital admissions than a city without an Age Concern..?
