Seroprevalence trends of anti-SARS-CoV-2 antibodies in the adult population of the São Paulo Municipality, Brazil: Results from seven serosurveys from June 2020 to April 2022. The SoroEpi MSP Study
The overall seroprevalence rose significantly over time and with age and race subgroup variations. Increases in the 60 years or older age and the White groups were faster than in younger ages and Black or mixed (Pardo) race groups in the post-vaccination period. Our data may add to the understanding of the complex and changing population dynamics of the SARS-CoV-2 infection, including the impact of vaccination strategies and the modelling of future epidemiological scenarios.
