Question#11 A laboratory blood test is 95% effective in detecting a certain disease when it is, in fact, present. However, the test also yields a “false positive” result for 1 percent of the healthy person tested. (that is, if a healthy person is tested, then, with probability 0.01, the test result will imply that he or she has the disease) if 0.5 percent of the population actually has the disease, what is the probability that a person has the disease given that test result is positive?
