Manage episode 340967119 series 3394199
We investigate COVID tests as an example of hypothesis testing, talk about the ways that tests go wrong, and look at the implications for people in the pandemic. In the mailbag segment we talk about the comparative risk of lower hospitalistion rate versus a more infectious strain.
