Scientists are searching for a vaccine for a disease. You are given:
(i) 100,000 lives age [math]x[/math] are exposed to the disease
(ii) Future lifetimes are independent, except that the vaccine, if available, will be given to all at the end of year 1
(iii) The probability that the vaccine will be available is 0.2
(iv) For each life during year [math]1, q_{x}=0.02[/math]
(v) For each life during year 2, [math]q_{x+1}=0.01[/math] if the vaccine has been given, and [math]q_{x+1}=0.02[/math] if it has not been given
Calculate the standard deviation of the number of survivors at the end of year 2.
