document.write( "Question 1132699: The NIH is creating a test for the Zika virus. The incidence of a Zika is low, 2 percent in the general population. There is a trial version, but it sometimes misses the disease. The probability of a false negative is 13 percent. Similarly, someone who does not have Zika, will sometimes get a positive reading. The probability of this is 10 percent. \r

Use a group of 10000, where 200 have Zika
\n" ); document.write( "------------------Test +-------------Test- ----------total
\n" ); document.write( "Person has-------174------------------26--------------200 false negatives are 26
\n" ); document.write( "Person doesn't----980-----------------8820-------------9800
\n" ); document.write( "Total------------1154-----------------8846------------10000\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "There are 1154 positive tests and 174 have the disease, so if positive, there is a 15.08% one has the disease.
\n" ); document.write( "
