We all good on composite test!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Agreement with a composite reference method
The performance of the Assurance AB™ COVID-19 IgM/IgG Rapid Antibody Test
was compared to a composite reference method that includes a RT-PCR method
and a chemiluminescence immunosorbent assay (CLIA). A total of 900 serum
samples (287 positive and 613 negative) were tested with the Assurance AB™
COVID-19 IgM/IgG Rapid Antibody Test and compared to a composite reference
method. The agreement results are presented in the table below.
