Had my blood pulled and all that about a month or so ago. Someone posted hear early results near a 20% infection rate.

Did Oschner ever come out with statistic on how many in the NOLA region has antibodies (previous infection)?

Seems like that would be good info to have.

My dad works for Ocshner and I think he said out of 10000 employees there was an 8% positive return or something around there. Can’t remember though.

Someone in the big thread (an Oschner employee I think) had put the statewide positive figure at 10%. Didn't see any figure for the NO area.

Over 28,000 have been tested so far across the entire state

10.1% infection rate. This was as if two weeks ago. No update since then. Also, I don’t have the breakdown of the region by region data

Another interesting couple of notes, 42% of those who tested positive said they don’t remember having a single symptom.

Most interesting note, infection rate of frontline workers and hospital staff is slightly lower than that of general population

I’m convinced it’s going to come out that a lot of tests high high failure or false positives/ negatives. Data is just all over the place. Certainly everything has been crazy and fast so perfection is not expected. I just mean it’s funny how many people ‘know’ they had it and are negative and how many never had a symptom.

This is good to know as basically everyone on my side of the family works in healthcare and we just had a baby.

If they wait too long, the test won't detect antibodies.

One of the studies found that 10 percent of nearly 1,500 COVID-positive patients registered undetectable antibody levels within weeks of first showing symptoms, while the other of 74 patients found they typically lost their antibodies two to three months after recovering from the infection, especially among those who tested positive but were asymptomatic.

Makes sense if you think about it. Front line workers are better trained and better equipped than the non medical populous.

Well what does this say for the prospect of getting a successful vaccine?
