Seroprevalence of SARS-CoV-2 antibodies in Saint Petersburg, Russia: a population-based study

Abstract Properly conducted serological survey can help determine infection disease true spread. This study aims to estimate the seroprevalence of SARS-CoV-2 antibodies in Saint Petersburg, Russia accounting for non-response bias. A sample of adults was recruited with random digit dialling, intervie...
