We estimate the seroprevalence of SARS-CoV-2 specific IgG antibodies in District Srinagar. 65 Besides, assuming that antibodies provide partial or total immunity, seroprevalence surveys give Here, we present the results of a cross-sectional seroprevalence study in District Srinagar, 70 conducted between 1 st and 15 th July 2020, to estimate the prevalence of IgG antibodies against 71 SARS-CoV-2 among adults using a sensitive and specific chemiluminescent microparticle 72 immunoassay (CMIA)-based test. 156 We estimated the number of infections till two weeks before the study period, i.e., 15 th June 2020 157 to 30 th June 2020, by applying the age-and gender-specific seroprevalence rates found in the Table) . ./cache/cord-346299-2s9j01q7.txt ./txt/cord-346299-2s9j01q7.txt
