That scientists in Germany and California have been able to perform antibody tests on
good-sized samples of the population yet again raises the question: why have we still
not performed such studies elsewhere? One of the problems, we are told, is that
antibody tests have proved inaccurate. The UK government bought a job lot of antibody
tests from China and then decided they were useless. But surely we have the facilities
to perform high-quality laboratory tests of the sort used in the Stanford and Gangelt
studies? Isn’t it about time we got moving on this?
