In SBC incidents, which statement is true regarding outcomes?

• A. There is a 1 in 3 chance others are harmed in incident
• B. The subject is 50% more likely to die or be injured
• C. The incident involves no risk to bystanders
• D. The subject is less likely to be killed

Answer: (B)

In these high-risk encounters, the person involved bears a higher chance of serious harm. Saying the subject is 50% more likely to die or be injured expresses a relative increase in risk: if the baseline chance is p, it becomes 1.5p. This framing matches how outcomes are often described in incident data, highlighting that the primary subject faces greater danger than a non-SBC scenario. The other statements either imply fixed bystander risk, no risk to bystanders, or the subject is less likely to be killed, which don’t align with the observed pattern of increased risk to the subject in these incidents.
