Practicing Success
It is given that only 0.1 % of a large population have COVID infection. In this population, the reliability of COVID RTPCR-test is specified as follows : For persons having COVID, 90% of the test detects the disease but 10% goes undetected. For persons not having COVID, 99% of the test is judged COVID negative but 1% are diagnosed as COVID positive. Based on the above informations, answer the question : |
The probability that randomly selected person form a population, not having COVID is: |
0.998 0.999 0.001 0.990 |
0.999 |
P(person not having COVID) = 1 - P(person having COVID) P(F) = 1 - P(E) = 1 - 0.001 = 0.999 |
