They're planning to do exactly that in some (probably many) countries. But the antibody tests are just being developed and might be ready in the next weeks for larger scales. But you need to do this properly to get a representative sample, which takes a bit of time.

Who is planning to do that? Any info available on that?
I understand the need for a proper study, just surprised we're not seeing more on this.
