Abstract

The EnCORE study is a prospective serology study of SARS-CoV-2 in a cohort of children from Montreal, Canada. Based on data from our fourth round of data collection (May-October 2022), we estimated SARS-CoV-2 seroprevalence and seroconversion. Using multivariable regression, we identified factors associated with seroconversion. Our results show that previously seronegative children were approximately 9-12 times more likely to seroconvert during the early Omicron-dominant period compared to pre-Omicron rounds. Unlike the pre-Omicron rounds, the adjusted rate of seroconversion among 2- to 4-year-olds was higher than older age groups. As seen previously, higher seroconversion rates were associated with ethnic/racial minority status.
