Abstract

The emergence of a new coronavirus infection COVID-19 has led to an enormous burden on the health service and an increase in the risk of infection of medical workers with the SARS-CoV-2 virus. Purpose of the study. To study the level of humoral immunity to SARS-CoV-2 in hospital medical personnel. Materials and methods . For August-September 2020. 368 studies were carried out for the qualitative determination of IgM and IgG to SARS-CoV-2. 254 hospital employees were examined: 54 doctors (21,3%), 193 nurses (76%), 7 nurses (2,7%). Results . It was found that among doctors and nurses there is approximately the same proportion of people with an immune response to the previous SARS-CoV-2 infection – 16,7% and 18,1%, respectively. The largest number of newly diagnosed patients from among those surveyed – among the nursing staff of therapeutic departments. Conclusion. Out of 254 medical workers examined in August-September 2020 in the hospital laboratory, 45 people (17,7%) have antibodies to SARS-CoV-2. It is necessary to continue testing employees with a broad involvement of the outpatient service and other departments and contingents of personnel.
