Article Synopsis
- The study investigated the characteristics of healthcare personnel (HCP) who tested positive for SARS-CoV-2 from April 2020 to December 2021 to inform protective measures for this workforce.
- Over 7,500 case-HCP were analyzed, revealing that a significant proportion of certified nursing assistants, medical assistants, and home healthcare workers identified as non-Hispanic Black or Hispanic, with many residing in areas of high social vulnerability.
- Findings suggest that tailored infection prevention strategies should be developed according to HCP roles and social vulnerability to effectively reduce the risk of SARS-CoV-2 infection.
Objective: To characterize residential social vulnerability among healthcare personnel (HCP) and evaluate its association with severe acute respiratory coronavirus virus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection.
Design: Case-control study.
Setting: This study analyzed data collected in May-December 2020 through sentinel and population-based surveillance in healthcare facilities in Colorado, Minnesota, New Mexico, New York, and Oregon.
Regulation of cytosolic mRNA translation is a key node for rapid adaptation to environmental stress conditions. In yeast and animals, phosphorylation of the α-subunit of eukaryotic translation initiation factor eIF2 is the most thoroughly characterized event for regulating global translation under stress. In plants, the GCN2 kinase () is the only known kinase for eIF2α.
