Nosocomial outbreak of SARS-CoV-2 in a “non-COVID-19” hospital ward: virus genome sequencing as a key tool to understand cryptic transmission

2021-02-23

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> <h4>Background</h4> Dissemination of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) in healthcare institutions affects both patients and health-care workers (HCW), as well as the institutional capacity to provide essential health services. <h4>Methods</h4> We conducted an investigation of a cluster of SARS-CoV-2 positive cases detected in a “non-COVID-19” hospital ward during Summer...
