CDC is working with commercial laboratories to conduct large-scale geographic seroprevalence surveys to estimate the percentage of people who were previously infected with SARS-CoV-2,the virus that causes COVID-19 disease. The strategy involves working with state, local, and territorial,academic, and commercial partners to better understand COVID-19 in the United States using serology (antibody) testing for surveillance (“seroprevalence surveys” or “serosurveys). For the surveys, and de-identified clinical blood samples are tested for antibodies to SARS-CoV-2.
This dataset contains the data used to by the Nationwide Commercial Laboratory Seroprevalence Survey interactive visualization available at https://covid.cdc.gov/covid-data-tracker/#national-lab.
