Protection of Healthcare Workers Against Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) Reinfection

Résumé

Recent reports of SARS-CoV-2 reinfection have raised questions as to whether and to what degree a first infection protects against reinfection. This is particularly important for healthcare workers (HCW) as they are always in the front line combatting both the present epidemic and any new waves of SARS-CoV-2 infection. These workers can also transmit the virus to co-workers and hospitalized susceptible patients. In their recent study, Lumley et al presented 6 months of data from a longitudinal seroprevalence study of UK HCW and showed that SARS-CoV-2 anti-nucleocapsid antibodies wane within months.
