PHE Serology Working Group

The Serology Working Group provides oversight of sero-epidemiology work for COVID-19 in England and partners with international colleagues, including the WHO, on these serological studies. The group monitors and reviews work on the establishment and running of population-based seroprevalence surveys in England. Sero-epidemiology is crucial in informing our understanding of the extent of transmission of SARS-CoV-2, and to monitor how this changes over time.

The Serology Working Group was disbanded in April 2020. The group’s work is now part of PHE’s surveillance programme for COVID-19.
