Visual Abstract. Antinucleocapsid Antibodies After SARS-CoV-2 Infection in COVE. Antinucleocapsid antibodies (anti-N Abs) are currently being used to diagnose prior SARS-CoV-2 infection in individuals and to determine community seroprevalence of SARS-CoV-2. In a large, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled vaccine efficacy trial of the mRNA-1273 vaccine, anti-N Ab status was determined in participants who had prior SARS-CoV-2 infection confirmed by polymerase chain reaction or anti-N Abs.
