B, for
Screen for disease without an asymptomatic period?
no
Prevalence equation
(TP+FN)/(total population)
Accuracy equation
(TP+TN)/(total population)
If sensitivity is 99.9%, what's the false negative rate? false positive rate?
Sensitivity: TP/(TP+FN), so FN would be 1/1000

to tell FP, you need the specificity: TN/TN+FP
What is the PPV if the prevalence (pre test probability) is the same as the FP rate?
50%
