Abstract

The time-sensitive collection of anonymized sera for the purposes of investigation to establish baseline susceptibility and cross-reactivity, and subsequent population level changes in sero-susceptibility/sero-prevalence to derive infection attack rates by age. i.e., screening blood samples to see if the virus is showing up in the BC population.
