The effect of the pandemic on autoantibody rates in the general population
This study could not establish a cause-effect relationship between the changing autoantibody levels during the COVID-19 pandemic and severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 infection due to the lack of results from the same patients across different periods. Nonetheless, we believe the quantitative seroprevalence changes in such a large sample of autoantibody screening results over a five-year period, including the pandemic, are valuable.
