BACKGROUND
During major epidemic outbreaks, the preparedness of public health systems is challenged and -healthcare workers (HCWs) are at the frontline. Italy was among the first- and worst-hit countries by COVID-19.
AIM
To analyze the prevalence and incidence of infection among HCWs in Friuli Venezia Giulia region (north-eastern Italy) from March 1 to the end of the Italian lock-down, May 10, 2020.
METHODS
HCWs exposed to COVID-19 patients were actively surveyed and all HCWs were routinely tested with nasopharyngeal and oropharyngeal swab for RNA virus detection (n. 54,670).
RESULTS
Infected HCWs (n. 595) represented the 32.3% of all COVID-19 cases in the region under 65 years of age, and incidence of infection was 11.4 cases/1000 workers. HCWs accounted for a significant proportion of coronavirus infection and experienced high infection incidence after unprotected contact.
CONCLUSIONS
HCWs' knowledge of SARS-CoV-2 epidemiology and proper infection control practices are critical to the control of the disease.
背景
在重大疫情爆发期间，公共卫生系统的准备工作受到挑战，医护人员（HCWs）处于前线。意大利是 COVID-19 首批和受影响最严重的国家之一。
目的
分析 2020 年 3 月 1 日至意大利封锁结束，即 5 月 10 日期间，意大利东北部弗留利-威尼斯朱利亚地区（Friuli Venezia Giulia region）医护人员感染的患病率和发病率。
方法
对接触过 COVID-19 患者的医护人员进行主动调查，对所有医护人员进行常规鼻咽和口咽拭子 RNA 病毒检测（n. 54670）。
结果
在该地区 65 岁以下的所有 COVID-19 病例中，感染的医护人员（n. 595）占 32.3%，感染发病率为每 1000 名工人 11.4 例。医护人员在冠状病毒感染中占很大比例，并且在无保护接触后经历了高感染发病率。
结论
医护人员对 SARS-CoV-2 流行病学的了解和适当的感染控制措施对于控制疾病至关重要。
