If I’m reading correctly, that’s talking about antibodies tests in that population. I don’t understand though, the infection tests we’ve been using are proven to be near 100% in detecting the virus. Of course it all depends on how well the test was administered but the test itself works. The chance of the test being wrong, if done properly is the exception not the norm. At the end of the day, why wouldn’t you want to know if the other crew member is infected?
