The Covid-19 vaccination programme has led to “a high proportion of individuals” in England having detectable antibodies, but concerns
remain over lower uptake among people who have been previously infected with coronavirus, according to scientists tracking the epidemic.
A study commissioned by the Government found that antibody prevalence in England was 61%, based on self-testing finger prick test results from than 200,000 people, taken between between May 12 and May 25.
But the experts warned that there were some key groups with a lower prevalence of antibodies – particularly unvaccinated younger people, certain minority ethnic groups, those living in deprived areas, and workers in some public facing employment such as hospitality and retail.
