- boomboomsubban 6y agoWhich I'm not discussing, I'm only discussing that an increase in testing leads to an increase in diagnoses.
- hef19898 6y agoNumber of diagnosis =\= number of disease cases
- boomboomsubban 6y agoYes, an increase in testing results in both an increase of false positives and an increase in treatment for non detrimental cases. I don't see what that has to do with anything else you've mentioned. edit ohh, I think you're trying to say that missing those people would somehow contaminate the sample? They would not be in the sample group even if records were more diligently kept. The studies I'm discussing are testing something else.
