Immune responses to this virus\,\nwhich can infect several different tissues\, are poorly u nderstood\,\nincluding the role of antibodies in resolving the infection. In March\n2020\, we reoriented our lab to develop Enzyme-Linked ImmunoSorb ent\nAssays (ELISA) for human antibody isotypes IgM\, IgG and IgA produced \nin response to the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein. To date we have analyzed\ns amples from 114 patients\, including both PCR positive and PCR\nnegative i ndividuals.\n DTSTAMP:20250908T154620Z END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
