RR with PROC GEE

I am using PROC GEE for correlated outcomes analysis. I know we get OR with Log functions. Q: Can we estimate relative risk with PROC GEE for binomial outcomes.

Please see the link to the usage note below. While Proc GEE is not used directly, the examples at the bottom can all accommodate a model that uses Proc GEE.

Thanks for the reply, much appreciated.

I understood that the modified Poisson approach can be used (repeated statement), however GEE has the advantage of specifying the correlation structure as we see would fit the research question. Is this available with the modified Poisson approach?

thank you
