Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2-Specific Antibody Responses in Coronavirus Disease Patients

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that most PCR-confirmed SARS-CoV-2–infected persons seroconverted by 2 weeks after disease onset, and validated and tested various antigens in different in-house and commercial ELISAs, finding that commercial S1 IgG or IgA ELISA were of lower specificity, and sensitivity varied between the 2 assays; the IgAELISA showed higher sensitivity.
