The winter will no doubt be rough for a region with a huge divergence in vaccination coverage, trust in institutions and quality of health care. Violence is already flaring up at the prospect of a longer pandemic than expected. The continent is swimming in vaccines but needs to aim higher to reach immunization thresholds. Europe has already kick-started booster campaigns for the overs but should expand access as soon as possible. The caveat is that there is a limit to what vaccines can do without vigilance.
The urge to abandon caution when cases are low, which is essentially what Denmark and other nations did this summer, is part of the problem. Policy makers need to shift their communication away from crisis and fear — which likely becomes less effective over time anyway — and toward long-term risk management. Investment in primary care will also matter as the first port of prevention. This is going to be a tough winter, especially for countries with low vaccination rates, and the current wave is a reminder of our tendency to underestimate this virus.
But we are better armed than we have ever been, reckons Elias Mossialos, a professor at the London School of Economics. Rapid tests can be performed in minutes and can include antigen and some NAATs. Some test results may need confirmatory testing. Self-tests are rapid tests that can be taken at home or anywhere, are easy to use, and produce rapid results.
COVID self-tests are one of many risk-reduction measures, along with vaccination, masking, and physical distancing, that protect you and others by reducing the chances of spreading COVID Antibodies are proteins that your immune system makes to help fight infection and protect you from getting sick in the future.
Antibody tests should not be used to diagnose a current infection, but may indicate if you had a past infection. Antibody tests help scientists learn about how human immune systems defend against the virus, as well as learn about population-level protection.
