@ASKilroy @jacklhasa @EclecticRadical In addition the virus can spread between healthcare workers (ie when your guard is down) https://t.co/7CHCyowFLy

@c_drosten Hier sieht man deutlich woher der Wind weht👇: Kinder sind „Gefährder“ in den Einrichtungen von Fr. Schröder. Evidenz dafür „Fehlanzeige“, die meisten Infektionen werden durch HCW eingetragen und verbreitet, ein Beispiel aus Berlin: https://t.co/

@rdmorris @EricTopol @LancetMicrobe Some sources. I think a key aspect is transmission dynamics. Patients presenting with severe COVID-19 are often well past their peak contagiousness. https://t.co/xCCvQykAIr https://t.co/ImhDo2Xe5L https://t.co/g5v0svs

Important points - 1. asymptomatic people can transmit 2. It can be HCW to HCW worker but also, likely from asymptomatic, unmasked patient to HCW 3. Wearing of proper protective equipment dependent on their availability (N95) https://t.co/zWWmnOPT6k &amp

Commonly, infected patients are regarded as the biggest risk for pathogen transmission for both other patients and HCWs. However, asymptomatically infected personnel represents a complicating factor in the context of outbreaks in healthcare facilities http

HCW to HCW transmission represented the likely source of the four outbreaks. Ensuring proper physical distancing measures and wearing of protective equipment, also when interacting with colleagues, must be a key aspect of fighting COVID-19 in healthcare ht

Il est bien possible que les rôle des contaminations entre soignants soit sous-estimé. Simplement pcq ls soignants prêtent moins attention aux mesures barrière qd ils sont entre eux

@MartinFierro769 cela rejoint bien les données de la littérature par exemple chez les soignants https://t.co/aqbNaRPg4Z

New #SARS_CoV_2 cases in healthcare workers often come from other healthcare workers, not patients. This new paper in ARIC is really interesting - click the link in the tweet below to read more 👇👇👇 @VirologyJ @ChariteBerlin
