TABLE. Estimated seroprevalence of SARS-CoV-2 immunoglobulin G (IgG) antibodies among a convenience sample of deidentified serum specimens from 19 facilities participating in the Influenza-like Illness Surveillance Network, by age group* — Oregon, May 11–June 15, 2020.

Age group (yrs) No. of samples tested SARS-CoV-2 IgG-positive
No. % (95% CI)
0–4 5 0 0 (0–52)
5–17 24 0 0 (1–14)
18–49 274 1 0.4 (0–2.0)
50–64 211 1 0.5 (0–2.6)
65–74 178 3 1.7 (0.3–4.8)
75–84 144 3 2.1 (0.4–6.0)
≥85 61 1 1.6 (0–8.8)
Total 897 9 1.0 (0.2–1.8)

Abbreviation: CI = confidence interval.

* Seroprevalence generally increased with age (chi-squared test for trend, p = 0.049).
