What is the probability that a randomly selected US citizen living on the east coast will not be exposed to lyme disease and test positive?

The probability that a randomly selected US citizen living on the East Coast will not be exposed to Lyme disease and test positive is generally low, as Lyme disease is primarily transmitted through tick bites in specific geographic areas. Most individuals in low-risk areas or who take preventive measures are unlikely to be exposed. Additionally, false positive test results can occur, but they are relatively rare. Therefore, while specific probabilities would require detailed epidemiological data, the overall chance of this scenario is minimal.
