Belgian collective immunity to coronavirus stagnates

The effect of the higher number of close contacts between people since June 8 cannot yet be measured.

Lcollective immunity from Covid-19 remains at a low level of 4.3% for the moment in Belgium, said the FPS Public Health on Friday. The presence of antibodies in the blood samples supplied by the Flemish Red Cross and the Red Cross Blood Service between 8 and 10 June has indeed no longer increased, according to the latest analyzes.

The samples come from donors aged 18 to 75, who were in good health at the time of donating blood. “Currently, we do not yet see in this group the impact of the relaxation of measures that was introduced from May 4,” analyzes the FPS Public Health. The effect of the higher number of close contacts between people, with the opening of the catering industry and the “corona” bubble enlarged to 10 people since June 8, cannot yet be measured.
