To review the scientific epidemiologic evidence on the role of hospitality venues in the incidence or mortality from COVID-19.
We included studies conducted in any population, describing either the impact of the closure or reopening of hospitality venues, or exposure to these venues, on the incidence or mortality from COVID-19. We used a snowball sampling approach with backward and forward citation search along with co-citations.
We found 20 articles examining the role of hospitality venues in the epidemiology of COVID-19. Modeling studies showed that interventions reducing social contacts in indoor venues can reduce COVID-19 transmission. Studies using statistical models showed similar results, including that the closure of hospitality venues is amongst the most effective measures in reducing incidence or mortality. Case studies highlighted the role of hospitality venues in generating super-spreading events, along with the importance of airflow and ventilation inside these venues.
We found consistent results across studies showing that the closure of hospitality venues is amongst the most effective measures to reduce the impact of COVID-19. We also found support for measures limiting capacity and improving ventilation to consider during the re-opening of these venues.
回顾关于餐饮场所在新冠病毒病（COVID-19）发病率或死亡率中作用的科学流行病学证据。
我们纳入了在任何人群中开展的研究，这些研究描述了餐饮场所关闭或重新开放，或接触这些场所对COVID-19发病率或死亡率的影响。我们采用了滚雪球抽样方法，进行前后向引文检索以及共引检索。
我们找到了20篇研究餐饮场所在COVID-19流行病学中作用的文章。模型研究表明，减少室内场所社交接触的干预措施可降低COVID-19传播。使用统计模型的研究也显示了类似结果，包括关闭餐饮场所是降低发病率或死亡率最有效的措施之一。案例研究强调了餐饮场所在引发超级传播事件中的作用，以及这些场所内气流和通风的重要性。
我们发现各项研究结果一致，表明关闭餐饮场所是减轻COVID-19影响最有效的措施之一。我们还发现有证据支持在这些场所重新开放期间限制容量和改善通风的措施。
