A test sensitivity of 82.58% (75.68–88.20%) and a specificity of 99.54% (98.66–99.90%) were used in the adjustment of the seroprevalence percentage. Confirmed cases in each geographical area were defined as confirmed viral RNA reactives as of 6 April 2020 to allow for an extra 2-week lag time between detectable virus and antibody development [7].
