Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The management of the Grand Hôpital de Charleroi hospital authorized the performance of a serology for each member of the establishment's staff in order to better characterize the proportion of its employees who have already been in contact with the SARS CoV-2 virus for organizational and evaluation purposes symptoms.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

At the start of the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic, several workers had symptoms compatible with COVID-19 at a time when PCR (smear) testing was only allowed for hospitalized people. In addition, the PCR test has a fairly low sensitivity. In this context, serology can make it possible to determine whether the symptoms are indeed linked to exposure to SARS-CoV-2.

As a hospital, and in order to prepare for a possible second epidemic wave, it is also useful to know the proportion of staff members who have already been in contact with the virus for organizational purposes and symptom assessment.
