Comparison of capillary blood and plasma samples for the evaluation of seroprevalence to SARS-CoV-2 antibodies by lateral flow immunoassay in a university population in Medellín, Colombia, 2020.

Objectives: The aim of this study was to estimate the seroprevalence of anti-SARS-CoV-2 antibodies using the SARS-CoV-2 antibody test in a university population. Capillary blood and plasma samples were compared and correlated with symptomatology to establish rapid treatment processes and develop a public health strategy within the community.

Study Design: Descriptive study of seroprevalence of anti-SARS-CoV-2 antibodies in a university population.
