Summary:Abstract We evaluated the seroprevalence of SARS-CoV-2 and risk factors among 4987 oligo/asymptomatic healthcare workers; seroprevalence was 14% and factors associated with SARS-CoV-2 infection were lower educational level (aOR, 1.93; 95% CI, 1.03–3.60), using public transport to work (aOR, 1.65; 95% CI, 1.07–2.62), and working in cleaning or security (aOR, 2.05; 95% CI, 1.04–4.03).
