Abstract

This project will provide general insights into the epidemiology (including seroprevalence) of COVID-19 and SARS-CoV-2, as well as specific insights into the exposure and risk to healthcare workers. These findings are of utmost relevance for all hospitals in Switzerland, not least with regard to the deployment planning of healthcare workers.
