A dual antibody test for accurate surveillance of SARS-CoV-2 exposure rates

Accurate population surveillance of SARS-CoV-2 infection has been hampered by limited testing and inadequate serological assays. In a recent issue of Med, Hippich et al.(1) describe a two-step antibody test with 100% specificity, revealing higher-than-reported SARS-CoV-2 exposure rates in children.
