In another development, new information from the Steering Committee for Covid-19 Prevention and Control of Hai Phong City said that the test results at the City Center for Preventive Medicine and the quick announcement from the Central Institute of Hygiene and Epidemiology about two F1 cases of the female teacher at Ngo Quyen High School were found to have antibodies to the SARS-CoV-2 virus.
These two people are the husband and son of a female teacher who contracted Covid-19 with an unknown source of infection. Specifically, after multiple tests, both father and son tested negative for SARS-CoV-2, but antibodies to the virus were found.
It is worth mentioning that neither of them had been vaccinated against Covid-19, so authorities believe that the father and son may have been recently infected with the SARS-CoV-2 virus and recovered by producing antibodies.
