Indication for SARS-CoV-2 serology: first month follow-up 2020-07-03 .txt text/plain 1536 99 51 Our laboratory performed a prospective surveillance of the SARS-CoV-2 serologic test requested during the first 5 weeks, by specifically looking at rate of the different accepted indications. For the 303 serologies requested by hospital-based physicians working in tertiary hospitals or clinics, 94 were positive (31%), 205 were negative (68%), and four were undetermined (13%). They had specific directives in their hospital to systematically perform a SARS-CoV-2 RT-PCR screening and serology to any patient arriving at the hospital. The residuals symptoms with no documented or negative RT-PCR (indication N°6.4) appeared to be very important for patient care but was totally unexpected, since on 14 th April, when we started the SARS-CoV-2 serology, the occurrence of such post-infectious complications were not yet reported [5] . This work may serve as a seed for international guidelines regarding the indications of SARS-CoV-2 serology for patients care. ./cache/cord-310692-8fuj9td2.txt ./txt/cord-310692-8fuj9td2.txt
