4 out of 5 doctors at Harvard cannot answer a question from introductory statistics

Dr Clare Craig @ClareCraigPath

For those interested in the correct answer...

Imagine testing 1000 patients.

5% will be false positive = 50

1 will be a true positive.

Therefore, the chance that any one patient with a positive test result has the disease is 1 in 50 or 2%.
