2. In the Vybа cаse, а prоduct develоpment team cоncluded that older consumers were not more likely to suffer adverse effects from the newly developed probiotic drink, after examining the ages of those who reported allergic reactions (see below). Thinking there is no correlation between age and allergic response, the team decided to launch the product to the general public. People who reported allergic reactions (from the case): Ages 40-49: 3 people Ages 50-59: 1 person Ages 60-69: 1 person Ages 70+: 2 people Is the conclusion about no correlation sound? What other data could the development team use to test the relationship between age and allergic reaction? What kind of biases lead them to rely only on the above data and eagerly release the product? Explain these biases and how they might operate in this case.
