Given that an individual is infected, the rapid test will register positive 40% of the time, while the slow test will register positive 80% of the time; additionally, both tests will be positive 35% of the time. Suppose in the above example that people not infected always test negative for both tests. Suppose in the above example that people not infected always test negative for both tests. 5. Of the people in the population who are tested, 75% of their results from the slow test are positive. What is the chance that a persons has the virus conditioned on getting negative result on the slow test?arrow_forward
