Suppose that one of every 500 people in a certain population has a particular disease, which displays no symptoms. A blood test is available for screening for this disease. For a person who has this disease, the test always turns out positive. For a person who does not have the disease, however, there is a 2% false positive rate--in other words, for such people, 98% of the time the test will turn out negative, but 2% of the time the test will turn out positive and will incorrectly indicate that the person has the disease. a. True
b. False
