Mass severe acute respiratory coronavirus virus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) testing of asymptomatic healthcare personnel
Abstract
Abstract Mass asymptomatic SARS-CoV-2 nucleic acid amplified testing of healthcare personnel (HCP) was performed at a large tertiary health system. A low period-prevalence of positive HCP was observed. Of those who tested positive, half had mild symptoms in retrospect. HCP with even mild symptoms should be isolated and tested.
