Job type, neighborhood prevalence, and risk of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) among healthcare workers in New York City.

Published in: Infection control and hospital epidemiology (2021)

In this study, we compared the risk of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) between clinical and nonclinical healthcare workers (HCWs) while adjusting for home ZIP codes. Clinical HCWs did not have a higher risk of COVID-19, but living in higher-risk ZIP codes was associated with increased infection rates. However, environmental services workers showed increased risk of COVID-19.
