SARS-CoV-2 Serological testing in frontline health workers in Zimbabwe
Our first aim was to determine both the infection status and seroprevalence of SARS-CoV-2 in health workers. Second aim to evaluate the occupational and demographic predictors of seropositivity. We invited 713 staff members at 24 out of 35 health facilities in the City of Bulawayo in Zimbabwe. Of the 635 people (aged 18-73) providing a blood sample 39.1% reported a history of past COVID-19 symptoms while 14.2% reported having current symptoms.
