Please Help me to solve this question and explain, THX!

The probability of getting a disease is 0.01. A clinical Test can be used to test whether a person has the disease. The probability that a person has this disease and test positive is 0.98. The probability that a person does not have the disease and test negative is 0.95.

If a person is tested positice, and test again with another positive result, what is the probability he actually has the disease.

The probability that an infected person gets 2 positive results=0.98×0.98The probability that a non-infected person gets 2 positive results=0.05×0.05The overall probability to get 2 positive results=0.98×0.98×0.01+0.05×0.05×0.99Probability that the person is infected=(0.98×0.98×0.01)÷(0.98×0.98×0.01+0.05×0.05×0.99)=0.7951
