Popis: | Introduction: The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has spread rapidly around the globe Even though multiple strategies are available for controlling infectious respiratory diseases, the current approach for managing this pandemic is the prevention of person-to-person transmission Despite the quarantine strategy, some work positions must remain active, such as airport personnel Objectives: To identify risk factors for COVID-19 transmission among workers at the El Dorado, Luis Carlos Galan Airport from March to July 2020 Methods: This is a prospective cohort study with workers of the El Dorado International Airport, in Bogota, Colombia A sociodemographic questionnaire was for searching for symptoms associated with COVID-19 and other risk factors Nasopharyngeal swabs were collected for determining the presence of COVID-19 In order to identify seroconversion, we used an automated chemiluminescent immunoassay for anti-SARS-CoV-2 IgM and IgG antibodies Patients with positive results were followed-up for 21 days Results: We observed an incidence of infection of 7 9%;most cases were asymptomatic The main risk factor associated with infection was the duration of daily commute (relative risk 1 02 [95% confidence interval, 1 002–1 041]) Conclusions: We observed asymptomatic infection by COVID-19 among airport workers Future research should contribute with knowledge for developing strategies that guarantee the protection of airport workers © 2020 Associacao Nacional de Medicina do Trabalho All rights reserved |
