Sensitivities and predictive value positives of differing cutoff probabilities of infection based on 1,000 bootstrap samples. A cutoff probability of infection of >0.20 yielded a sensitivity of 87% and a predictive value positive of 55%. A cutoff probability of >0.40 yielded a sensitivity of 73% and a predictive value positive of 64%.
