Protective measures against SARS-CoV-2 are of particular importance for HCP in direct contact with patients suffering from COVID-19 in the ambulatory as well as hospital setting. The apparent higher rate of infection among HCP may be due to lack of awareness among staff, insufficient protective measures, social gatherings outside the workplace, or contact with known patients with COVID-19 in the community. The aim of this study was to evaluate demographic and clinical characteristics, management, and in-hospital outcome of COVID-19 among HCP with self-reported fever or respiratory symptoms in a tertiary cardiac care hospital. From April 29 to July 20, 2020, HCP with self-reported fever or respiratory symptoms or close contact with the patient at home or at the workplace in the last 10 days were tested for SARS-CoV-2 infection. ./cache/cord-291581-oyhzot4z.txt ./txt/cord-291581-oyhzot4z.txt
