Answer:

The person in the at-risk population is much more likely to actually have the disease

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability of a randomly selected doctor having the disease is 1 in 1,000 (P(I)=0.0001).

The probability that a doctor is infected with SARS, given that they tested positive is:

$P(I|+)=\frac{P(I)*0.99}{P(I)*0.99+(1-P(I))*0.01}\\P(I|+)=\frac{0.0001*0.99}{0.0001*0.99+(1-0.0001)*0.01}\\P(I|+)=9.9*10^{-3}$

The probability of a randomly selected person from the at-risk population having the disease is 20 in 100 (P(I)=0.20).

The probability that a person in the at-risk population is infected with SARS, given that they tested positive is:

$P(I|+)=\frac{P(I)*0.99}{P(I)*0.99+(1-P(I))*0.01}\\P(I|+)=\frac{0.2*0.99}{0.2*0.99+(1-0.2)*0.01}\\P(I|+)=0.962$

Therefore, the person in the at-risk population is much more likely to actually have the disease
