Modelling the impact of healthcare worker masking to reduce nosocomial SARS-CoV-2 transmission under varying adherence, prevalence, and transmission settings.

2024-12-25

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p>Objectives To understand the scenarios where health care worker (HCW) masking is most impactful for preventing nosocomial transmission. Methods A mathematical agent-based model of nosocomial spread with masking interventions was used. Masking adherence, community prevalence, disease transmissibility and proportion of breakroom (unmasked) interactions were varied. The effectiveness of...
