Our purpose was to document at the end of the Belgium epidemic the seroprevalence of SARS-CoV-2 in HCWs exposed to COVID-19 at varying degrees and to compare these rates with those observed by other teams worldwide. On the same day, all asymptomatic HCWs who agreed to participate benefited from both serological and RT-qPCR SARS-CoV-2 tests.
