Article Synopsis
- Bedbugs are increasing in urban areas globally, potentially due to bans on certain pesticides.
- They are flat insects that primarily feed on human blood, and their bites are typically non-toxic, making them hard to detect but can lead to various skin reactions.
- Effective eradication of bedbugs usually involves a combination of physical methods, like high temperatures and traps, and chemical treatments that include specific insecticides.
Background: The seroprevalence of antibodies to SARS-CoV-2 in healthcare workers is variable throughout the world. This study compares the use of two antibody assays among large cohorts of healthcare workers in southern England.
Methods: This cohort study includes data obtained from staff at Western Sussex Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust (WSHT) and Brighton and Sussex University Hospitals (BSUH) during voluntary antibody testing, using Abbott and Roche SARS-CoV-2 antibody assays at each Trust respectively.
