Question

The genetic of a human is the source of a disese., but only if you have the gene type a. The relative frequency of people with carrying two copies of a is 0.0001(aa), but one copy is 0.0198(Aa). Those not having the a-gene = 0.9801(AA) 

Even though you are carrying a you may not get the disese. 
You can get the disese without a. 

the probability of aa = 0.6, Aa= 0.02 and AA= 0.01

What is the probability that a random person has the disese? 

Given you have the disese, whats the probabilty for having genes aa, Aa or AA?
