https://www.selleckchem.com/products/geneticin-g418-sulfate.html Current evidence suggests that transmission of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) is possible among symptom-free individuals but limited data are available on this topic in healthcare workers (HCW). The quality and acceptability of self-collected nasopharyngeal swabs (NPS) is unknown. To estimate the prevalence of SARS-CoV-2 infection and to assess the acceptability of self-collected NPS among HCW. Cross-sectional convenience sample enrolled between April 20th and June 24th, 2020. We had >95% power to detect at least one positive test if the true underlying prevalence of SARS-CoV2 was > 1%. The metropolitan area surrounding Minneapolis and St. Paul, Minnesota. HCW free of self-reported upper respiratory symptoms were recruited. Exposures Participants completed questionnaires regarding demographics, household characteristics, personal protective equipment (PPE) utilization and comorbidities. A participant self-collected nasopharyngeal swab (NPS) was obtained. SARS-Coants reported a willingness to repeat a self-collected NP swab in the future. The point prevalence of SARS-CoV-2 infection was likely very low in symptom-free Minnesota healthcare workers from April 20th and June 24th, 2020. Self-collected NP swabs are well-tolerated and a viable alternative to provider-collected swabs to preserve PPE.

Self-collected NP swabs are well-tolerated and a viable alternative to provider-collected swabs to preserve PPE. Blacks/African-Americans are overrepresented in the number of COVID-19 infections, hospitalizations and deaths. Reasons for this disparity have not been well-characterized but may be due to underlying comorbidities or sociodemographic factors. To systematically determine patient characteristics associated with racial/ethnic dispa
