2 In the United States, roughly 10% of the population has diabetes. Suppose that a screening test for diabetes is 80% sensitive (meaning that 80% of people who have diabetes will correctly test positive) and 70% specific (meaning that 70% of people who do not have diabetes will correctly test negative). When this test gives a positive result, what is the probability that the person tested truly has diabetes?
