Abstract
In this paper we present results from the first national house-hold based SARS CoV- 2 sero-prevalence survey conducted in South Africa in 2020-21. The survey used a cross-sectional multi-stage stratified cluster design. The data was collected over two separate time periods (November 2020 - February 2021 and April - June 2021). This periods coincided with the second and third waves of the pandemic in South Africa. In this paper we compare the performance of the The Abbott® and Euroimmun® ani-SARS CoV- 2 antibody assays.
