    2.4 Estimating COVID-19 prevalence based on community seroprevalence testing: Serostatus was determined as a qualitative assessment by measuring levels of SARS-CoV-2 spike protein specific immunoglobulin (Ig) G (Spike IgG) antibodies in peripheral blood samples as reported previously by Hamorsky et al.24 Seroprevalence can detect the antibodies of COVID-19 patients up to 300 days following infection.25,26 There was a low number of participants positive for Spike IgG antibodies for the individual areas of MSD3, MSD4 and MSD5 (MSD3-5 N=31 participants positive) (Table 1).

    About SciScore

    SciScore is an automated tool that is designed to assist expert reviewers by finding and presenting formulaic information scattered throughout a paper in a standard, easy to digest format. SciScore checks for the presence and correctness of RRIDs (research resource identifiers), and for rigor criteria such as sex and investigator blinding. For details on the theoretical underpinning of rigor criteria and the tools shown here, including references cited, please follow this link.
