SARS-CoV2 among Health Sector Workers and Related Factors in a Referral Hospital in Northeast of Iran: A Retrospective Analysis.
2021
We aimed to identify the prevalence of SARS-CoV2 and its related factors among suspected health sector workers (HSWs) by conducting a descriptive analytical study on the SARS-CoV2 registered data in Shahroud region, Iran. Among the 267 suspected HSWs, 15.7% were confirmed vs. 29.1% of the suspected non-HSW cases, and the difference between two groups was significant. Among the related variables, after adjusting for age and sex, being asymptomatic (OR = 0.43), having fever (OR = 3.28), inpatient (OR = 7.14), and no history of flu vaccination (OR = 2.33) were significantly associated with the confirmed HSWs. It is recommended that all HSWs be screened and close contacts of confirmed cases be followed up.
