    yourself or for someone else in your immediate
    family?
  • Influenced by ones personal experience with
    the disease and capacity to deal with risk.
  • Affects few people.
  • Level II What would I recommend to my
    patient/client?
  • Physician making a recommendation for his/her
    patients. Influenced by prior experience, but
    the scientific evidence may play a greater role.
  • Affects possibly hundreds of people.
  • Level III What would I recommend to the nation,
    the world?
  • Across-the-board recommendations for a
    population.
  • Must be based on rigorous assessment of the
    scientific evidence.
