Effect of a changing disease prevalence (x axis) on the population-level PPV of each test for scores derived from IgG (left), IgM (middle), and the average score of both antibodies (right).

Color coding: Grey: no improvement; Light blue: rescues one of the two antibodies; Dark blue: rescues both of the antibodies; Orange: performs worse than one of the antibodies
