Even if the test seems to be relatively accurate to capture sick people, the probability of being measured as a sick person given that you are sick is 22 %. As the sickness gets more rare, the test results will be less and less reliable. There is also a very nice [visual illustration here](https://seeing-theory.brown.edu/bayesian-inference/index.html#section1) that you can play with.

Our concern here is, how can we generalize the approach for N number of events?
Our concern here is, how can we generalize the approach for N number of events? In the above formulation, we only considered two events in our weighted summation. If we have N number of possible events, constituting the sample space, we just need to extend this description for an event m:
```math
p(E_n|E_m) = p(E_mE_n)/p(E_m)
...
```math
p(E_n|E_m) = p(E_m|E_n)p(E_n)/p(E_m)
...
...
Bayes’s formula is utilized under the hood of several models we will learn throughout the lecture. Let’s look at an example, for which we have [a visual illustration](https://seeing-theory.brown.edu/bayesian-inference/index.html#section1) you can play with.
This is basically what Bayes’s formula is. It utilized under the hood of several models we will learn throughout the lecture. Let’s look at an example, for which we have [a visual illustration]( https://seeing-theory.brown.edu/bayesian-inference/index.html#section1) you can play with.
