IMPORTANCE: Few US studies have reexamined risk factors for SARS-CoV-2 positivity in the context of widespread vaccination and new variants or considered risk factors for cocirculating endemic viruses, such as rhinovirus. OBJECTIVES: To evaluate how risk factors and symptoms associated with SARS-CoV-2 test positivity changed over the course of the pandemic and to compare these with the risk factors associated with rhinovirus test positivity. DESIGN, SETTING, AND PARTICIPANTS: This case-control study used a test-negative design with multivariable logistic regression to assess associations between SARS-CoV-2 and rhinovirus test positivity and self-reported demographic and symptom variables over a 25-month period. The study was conducted among symptomatic individuals of all ages enrolled in a cross-sectional community surveillance study in King County, Washington, from June 2020 to July 2022. EXPOSURES: Self-reported data for 15 demographic and health behavior variables and 16 symptoms. MAIN OUTCOMES AND MEASURES: Reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction-confirmed SARS-CoV-2 or rhinovirus infection. RESULTS: Analyses included data from 23 498 individuals. The median (IQR) age of participants was 34.33 (22.42-45.08) years, 13 878 (59.06%) were female, 4018 (17.10%) identified as Asian, 654 (2.78%) identified as Black, and 2193 (9.33%) identified as Hispanic. Close contact with an individual with SARS-CoV-2 (adjusted odds ratio [aOR], 3.89; 95% CI, 3.34-4.57) and loss of smell or taste (aOR, 3.49; 95% CI, 2.77-4.41) were the variables most associated with SARS-CoV-2 test positivity, but both attenuated during the Omicron period. Contact with a vaccinated individual with SARS-CoV-2 (aOR, 2.03; 95% CI, 1.56-2.79) was associated with lower odds of testing positive than contact with an unvaccinated individual with SARS-CoV-2 (aOR, 4.04; 95% CI, 2.39-7.23). Sore throat was associated with Omicron infection (aOR, 2.27; 95% CI, 1.68-3.20) but not Delta infection. Vaccine effectiveness for participants fully vaccinated with a booster dose was 93% (95% CI, 73%-100%) for Delta, but not significant for Omicron. Variables associated with rhinovirus test positivity included being younger than 12 years (aOR, 3.92; 95% CI, 3.42-4.51) and experiencing a runny or stuffy nose (aOR, 4.58; 95% CI, 4.07-5.21). Black race, residing in south King County, and households with 5 or more people were significantly associated with both SARS-CoV-2 and rhinovirus test positivity. CONCLUSIONS AND RELEVANCE: In this case-control study of 23 498 symptomatic individuals, estimated risk factors and symptoms associated with SARS-CoV-2 infection changed over time. There was a shift in reported symptoms between the Delta and Omicron variants as well as reductions in the protection provided by vaccines. Racial and sociodemographic disparities persisted in the third year of SARS-CoV-2 circulation and were also present in rhinovirus infection. Trends in testing behavior and availability may influence these results.
重要性:在美国,很少有研究在广泛接种疫苗和新变体的背景下重新检查与 SARS-CoV-2 阳性相关的风险因素,也很少有研究考虑与鼻病毒等地方性病毒共循环相关的风险因素。 目的:评估在大流行过程中与 SARS-CoV-2 检测阳性相关的风险因素和症状如何变化,并将这些与与鼻病毒检测阳性相关的风险因素进行比较。 设计、地点和参与者:本病例对照研究使用了带有多变量逻辑回归的阴性检测设计,以评估在 25 个月的时间内,与 SARS-CoV-2 和鼻病毒检测阳性相关的年龄、性别、种族、地理位置、症状和行为变量。该研究在华盛顿州金县的一项横断面社区监测研究中进行,招募了所有年龄段有症状的个体,时间从 2020 年 6 月至 2022 年 7 月。 暴露:自我报告的 15 个人口统计学和健康行为变量以及 16 个症状。 主要结果和测量:逆转录聚合酶链反应确认的 SARS-CoV-2 或鼻病毒感染。 结果:分析包括 23498 名参与者的数据。参与者的中位数(IQR)年龄为 34.33(22.42-45.08)岁,13878 人(59.06%)为女性,4018 人(17.10%)为亚洲人,654 人(2.78%)为黑人,2193 人(9.33%)为西班牙裔。与 SARS-CoV-2 患者密切接触(调整后的优势比[aOR],3.89;95%置信区间[CI],3.34-4.57)和嗅觉或味觉丧失(aOR,3.49;95% CI,2.77-4.41)是与 SARS-CoV-2 检测阳性最相关的变量,但在奥密克戎时期都有所减弱。与接种过 SARS-CoV-2 的个体接触(aOR,2.03;95% CI,1.56-2.79)与接触未接种 SARS-CoV-2 的个体相比,检测呈阳性的可能性较低(aOR,4.04;95% CI,2.39-7.23)。喉咙痛与奥密克戎感染相关(aOR,2.27;95% CI,1.68-3.20),但与德尔塔感染无关。完全接种疫苗加强针的参与者的疫苗有效性为 93%(95% CI,73%-100%)针对德尔塔,但对奥密克戎不显著。与鼻病毒检测阳性相关的变量包括年龄小于 12 岁(aOR,3.92;95% CI,3.42-4.51)和流鼻涕或鼻塞(aOR,4.58;95% CI,4.07-5.21)。黑人、居住在金县南部和家庭人口数为 5 人或以上与 SARS-CoV-2 和鼻病毒检测阳性均显著相关。 结论和相关性:在这项针对 23498 名有症状个体的病例对照研究中,与 SARS-CoV-2 感染相关的估计风险因素和症状随时间发生了变化。在德尔塔和奥密克戎变体之间,报告的症状发生了转变,疫苗的保护作用也有所降低。在 SARS-CoV-2 传播的第三年,种族和社会人口统计学差异仍然存在,并且在鼻病毒感染中也存在。检测行为和可用性的趋势可能会影响这些结果。
