54% of Hyderabad's population estimated to have COVID-19 antibodies

Deccan Chronicle  

Hyderabad: A seroprevalence study done in Hyderabad has revealed that around 54 per cent of the city's residents developed antibodies against SARS-CoV-2, indicating prior exposure to coronavirus. Unsurprisingly, those who had COVID-19 positive cases in their own households, showed the maximum seropositivity of 78 per cent. "This multistage random sampling study on 9,000 people in the city of Hyderabad showed that more than 75 per cent of the seropositive population did not know that they had contracted coronavirus in the past. According to the study, individuals who had displayed prominent COVID-19 symptoms as well as those who were asymptomatic, both had equivalent seroprevalence of around 54 per cent.
