OBJECTIVE
To estimate the serological prevalence of SARS-CoV-2 infection among prison system workers in the state of Espírito Santo, Brazil, between August-September 2020.
METHODS
This was a stratified sample survey, using interviews and serological tests for SARS-CoV-2.
RESULTS
Among the 986 interviewers, the serological prevalence of SARS-CoV-2 infection was 11.9% (95%CI 8.1%;15.7%) in health professionals, and 22.1% (95%CI 18.8%;25.3%) in prison officers. Positivity was more frequent among health professionals in the north of the state (19.7%) and in male prison officers (24.0%). Among seropositive individuals, fatigue was the most frequent symptom in prison agents (13.4%) and myalgia in health professionals (10.8%); and the most prevalent comorbidities among the seropositive individuals were asthma or bronchitis (16.2%), in health professionals, and hypertension in prison officers (12.8%).
CONCLUSION
The serological prevalence of SARS-Cov-2 infection was higher in prison officers, a finding that can support disease control and prevention actions in this scenario.
目的
估计 2020 年 8 月至 9 月期间巴西圣埃斯皮里图州监狱系统工作人员中 SARS-CoV-2 感染的血清流行率。
方法
这是一项分层抽样调查，使用 SARS-CoV-2 的访谈和血清学检测。
结果
在 986 名访谈者中，卫生专业人员 SARS-CoV-2 感染的血清流行率为 11.9%（95%CI 8.1%；15.7%），监狱官员为 22.1%（95%CI 18.8%；25.3%）。州北部的卫生专业人员（19.7%）和男性监狱官员（24.0%）的阳性率更高。在血清阳性者中，疲劳是监狱人员中最常见的症状（13.4%），肌肉痛是卫生专业人员中最常见的症状（10.8%）；血清阳性者中最常见的合并症是哮喘或支气管炎（16.2%），在卫生专业人员中，高血压在监狱官员中最常见（12.8%）。
结论
监狱官员中 SARS-CoV-2 感染的血清流行率较高，这一发现可为该场景中的疾病控制和预防措施提供支持。
