Estimating the duration of seropositivity of human seasonal coronaviruses using seroprevalence studies [version 2; peer review: 3 approved]
Background: The duration of immunity against severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) is still uncertain, but it is of key clinical and epidemiological importance. Seasonal human coronaviruses (HCoV) have been circulating for longer and, therefore, may offer insights into the lon...
