Probabilities (General)

My point remains David-People in general (and most doctor's apparently) didn't know now to interpret the probability data presented.-I suspect that just about every test a doctor might ask for has a false positive rate associated with it. It might be vanishing small or significant.
Anyway it is not point to denigrate the medical profession in any way. I put my life in their hands quite often.-My central point remains people are not always good at handling probabilities.
