Abstract
We evaluated the secondary COVID-19 incidence among uninfected hospitalized patients after nosocomial COVID-19 exposure. An exposure source of SARS-CoV-2 was hospitalized patients or healthcare personnel (HCP) newly diagnosed as having COVID-19. Patients exposed to a COVID-19-infected patient in a shared room more frequently developed COVID-19 than those exposed to an infected HCP.
