Evaluation of a rapid serological test for detection of IgM and igG antibodies against SARS-CoV-2 under field conditions.

CONCLUSIONS: The rapid serological test was able to detect a greater number of cases than those detected by the molecular test especially after the second week of onset of symptoms. It also showed high specificity. It is therefore useful as a complementary test to RT-PCR, especially during the second and third week of illness. PMID: 32876207 [PubMed - in process]
