Brief Summary
SARS-CoV-2 transmission is frequently occurring in hospital settings, with numerous reported cases of nosocomial transmission highlighting the vulnerability of healthcare workers. If products proved to be efficacious against COVID-19, why are so many HCW getting COVID-19? Is it related to experience? Is it generated by the exhaustive job? Is there any degree of relationship to stress? These questions are still without fully correct answers. Achieving global benefits for HCW is still waiting.
