Article Synopsis
- Health care workers (HCWs) face increased risk of SARS-CoV-2 infection, potentially transmitting it to vulnerable patients and the community, especially when infections are asymptomatic.
- A study examined asymptomatic HCWs through PCR testing, finding a 0.50% positivity rate compared to 3.4% among symptomatic HCWs, indicating that asymptomatic infections are less common but still significant.
- The study supports routine screening for asymptomatic HCWs to identify infections, enhancing safety measures within healthcare settings.
