concept making lecture must watch

I have read about sensitivity and specificity and now watched three different videos. Yours was the best, and I think I have it now. Thanks!

Excellent description.

[@cryptonetcentralusa5592]

Really good explanation! Clear and concise. One of the best on KZbin.

Excellent presentation, superb explanation. Subbed. Btw, the bit that won me over was your admission that a test 100% sensitive AND 100% specific is IMPOSSIBLE. It's obvious, a scientifically proven fact, but I see test designers and MDs claiming that there are tests which achieve that. Good work. 👍

This is useful for people to understand the difference between interpreting the Covid-19 PCR method and the antibody method. Maybe a talk on this could be useful.

But in the last example, since the NPV is so high, doesn't that suggest we shouldn't rule the disease out?
