Scientists from Milan’s Istituto Nazionale Tumori, a cancer research centre, wrote in a new paper, published on Monday, that retesting of a small number of pre-pandemic blood samples by two laboratories had indicated the presence of antibodies normally observed after coronavirus infections. At the request of the World Health Organization those samples were retested by the VisMederi laboratory in Siena, Italy, and a WHO-affiliated facility at Erasmus University in the Netherlands. The WHO said it was not part of the laboratory analysis and that the results highlighted the challenge of conducting antibody tests on samples from 2019.
