- Abstract
Positivity rates were also higher in staff working in COVID-19-facing areas and among BAME staff. Unfortunately, HCW infection data disaggregated by occupational group are unavailable on a national level at the time of writing. Data recording disease severity and disease progression from onset among HCWs remain somewhat scarce. These data imply an increased risk of disease transmission due to occupational and workplace exposures, especially as PPE was introduced to care homes relatively late in the pandemic [3].
