[Occupationally acquired SARS-CoV-2 infections among healthcare personnel in Frankfurt am Main from March to August 2020].

Background: Standardised surveillance of COVID-19 infections among healthcare personnel during the current pandemic was and is not available. In particular, the proportion of occupational infections among healthcare personnel and which workers among them are most at risk remains unclear.

Objectives: The aim of this study was to analyse the reported COVID-19 cases among healthcare personnel in Frankfurt/Main during the first six months of the pandemic, to determine the number of occupational infections and thus to allow a better interpretation of the data published by the Robert Koch Institute.
