Covid-19 antibody study of MLB employees finds 0.7% have had the virus
- duxup 6y agoI'm curious how you decide on MLB employees, and do they even have access to all of them to test them?
- xoxoy 6y agoThe MLB agreed to it. The point was to get a large random sample of people across the country...it doesn’t have anything to do with baseball otherwise. My read is that this is more a bad thing than a good thing. I think the assumption was that asymptomatic spread was more prevalent across country than we thought, but this would disprove that theory. Also they noted that these people are on average a higher socioeconomic status than average American, and takeaway is that those who have been able to WFH probably have a much lower prevalence of antibodies than essential workers, even in hard hit areas like New York. Something to consider.
