Overall, 134 ICU HCP responded to the survey: 75% were women, 47.73% were registered nurses, 9.85% were attending physicians, 26.52% were resident physicians, 6.82% were patient care assistants, 6.82% were respiratory therapists, 1.52% were technicians, and 0.76% were anesthetists. The mean age of the respondents was 39.2 years (IQR, 28–48.5). The mean duration of work was 29.3 days (IQR, 16.0–40.0). Of 134 ICU HCP eligible staff, 13 were excluded and 121 underwent SARS-CoV-2–specific IgG antibody testing. One individual tested positive and 1 test result was inconclusive due to a faulty test kit and was removed from the analysis. In this study, the prevalence of asymptomatic seroconversion was 0.83%.
