* Convalescent SARS-CoV-2 blood samples collected 14 days or longer following symptom onset. Data are unique for each assay as the samples used were not all the same. The data used are as published by Public Health England and are available on the website http://www.gov.uk/government/publications/COVID-19-laboratory-evaluations-of-serological-assays#history (accessed on 10 March 2021) [52].
