FDA recommended performance thresholds (Pan Ig and IgG): Specificity ≥93%; Sensitivity ≥90%. Data highlighted in bold if below FDA recommended performance thresholds. The sensitivity measurements were not evaluated for vaccinated in anti-nucleocapsid assays as indicated by the dashes. Data analysis was performed prior to harmonization.
