SUMMARY:Profs Present...The Tell-tale Sign of Antibodies: Determining COVID
 -19\nImmunity with Blood Testing with Professor Brian Dixon
CLASS:PUBLIC
DESCRIPTION:COVID-19 has brought disease and mortality at levels not seen f
 rom a\nrespiratory virus for over 100 years. Immune responses to this viru
 s\,\nwhich can infect several different tissues\, are poorly understood\,\
 nincluding the role of antibodies in resolving the infection. In March\n20
 20\, we reoriented our lab to develop Enzyme-Linked ImmunoSorbent\nAssays 
 (ELISA) for human antibody isotypes IgM\, IgG and IgA produced\nin respons
 e to the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein. To date we have analyzed\nsamples from 
 114 patients\, including both PCR positive and PCR\nnegative individuals.
