The last blood samples were taken and the first results fell. Of the 68,000 residents of Nice tested since June 9 (out of just under 350,000 inhabitants) as part of the free serology screening campaign launched by the municipality, only 1.3% have developed antibodies against the new coronavirus. In Monaco, where 35,000 inhabitants passed a rapid test, the seroprevalence of Covid-19 reached 2.8%.
"There were 53,000 volunteers among the population and 15,000 municipal and metropolitan agents also screened, said this Sunday at 20 minutes the first deputy mayor of Nice Anthony Borré. On the latter, the share of people with a positive serology rises to 3.5%. "
The CHU will work on this data
These results and the anonymized information that a little more than 50% of the people tested agreed to share will now be used by the teams of the Nice University Hospital for an epidemiological investigation.
"It is the widest on this scale," praises the elected official, who specifies that the conclusions should be made public by the beginning of September.
