With the conventional approach, the sensitivity of four immunoassays-measured in a predominantly vaccinated population based on samples collected ~1 month after a positive test result-fell below regulatory agencies requirement of ≥95%. The ratio-based approach significantly improved the sensitivities and qualitative agreement among immunoassays, to the point where all would meet this requirement.
