*Seroprevalence estimated from weighted data.

†Unadjusted OR with corresponding 95% CIs and p values from univariable logistic regressions.

‡For those aged 18 years or older: BMI ≥30 kg/m2; for those aged 6–17 years: BMI (body mass index) ≥IOTF ((International Obesity Task Force) -30 cut-off points.

§Other medical conditions including: asthma, other respiratory diseases, hypertension, heart disease, treated diabetes, treated cancer (excluding hormone therapy), HIV and immunodeficiency, chronic liver disease, chronic kidney disease, neuromuscular diseases.

¶Clinical COVID-19 cases in the household: number of people, except the respondent, with clinical signs of COVID-19 (cough, fever), a positive RT-PCR test or who consulted for suspected COVID-19 since 24 February 2020.

**Living rooms were excluded, except for single people, in order to measure the potential for isolation in the dwellings. Indicator calculated: ([number of people]/number of rooms−1]).
