Characterising within-hospital SARS-CoV-2 transmission events: a retrospective analysis integrating epidemiological and viral genomic data from a UK tertiary care setting across two pandemic waves

2021-07-19

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Structured abstract</h4> <h4>Objectives</h4> To characterise within-hospital SARS-CoV-2 transmission across two waves of the COVID-19 pandemic. <h4>Design</h4> A retrospective Bayesian modelling study to reconstruct transmission chains amongst 2181 patients and healthcare workers using combined viral genomic and epidemiological data. <h4>Setting</h4> A large UK NHS Trust with over 1400 beds and employing appro...
