A positive test result shows you may have antibodies from an infection with the virus that causes COVID-19. However, there is a chance a positive result means that you have antibodies from an infection with a virus from the same family of viruses (called coronaviruses), such as the one that causes the common cold.

Actually, there's four different coronaviri that can cause the common cold. And, given how the ChinaVirus is trending, next year it might just be added to that list. Only somewhat dangerous for old/already sickly people.

How do we know this spike in cases isn’t from cold cases that just read like COVID cases?
