Delhi Health Minister Satyendra Jain has said that fifth serosurvey done in the national capital of Delhi has detected antibodies in 56.13 % of population. Jain tweeted: “In the fifth serosurvey done in the national capital of Delhi, antibodies have been detected in 56.13 % of the population. This was the largest survey being done by the Delhi Govt. Delhi has largely won over COVID, though we should continue to practice Covid appropriate behaviour.”.
The health minister said that the latest serological survey involved around 28,000 samples and was the largest one undertaken by the Delhi government. It was conducted from January 15 to 23.
Delhi Health Minister Satyendra Jain said on Tuesday 56.13 per cent of those covered under the latest serological survey in the city in January have developed antibodies against coronavirus. The minister also said Delhi was “moving towards herd immunity, but only experts will be able to give a clear picture”. At 62.18 percent, Southwest Delhi district reported maximum seroprevalence. North Delhi at 49.09 percent recorded the lowest. Experts, though, advised caution. Even if the sample size is relatively small, it must be taken into account. However, the conclusions on herd immunity have to be taken with a pinch of salt, said immunologist Satish Devadas.
