Healthcare workers (HCWs) have an increased risk of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection due to occupational exposure. Strict measures generally focus on the patient-to-HCW contacts. However, interactions between HCWs also pose a high for SARS-CoV-2 This study was aimed investigate effect social contacts level exposure among by broadening current assessment algorithm. Contact tracing records in large university hospital 19th March and 31st December 2020 were...
Objective: It is important to put forward the characteristics of COVID-19 cases fight disease effectively. The aim this study determine epidemiological in Turkey. And also risk factors associated with intensive care unit (ICU) admission and death. Methods: In cross-sectional study, confirmed who applied a University Hospital Turkey between March 19th June 11th, 2020, were analyzed.

The total annual count of reported tuberculosis (TB) cases continues to decline throughout Turkey. Recognizing the regions with high and low burdens revealing factors affecting TB notification rates may play a role in guiding national control programs. This study aimed analyze spatial distribution from 2005 2018 evaluate contributing rates.
Making the right decisions in field of public health depends on reliable recording statistical data such as death and birth. There have been radical changes innovations registration since 2009 Turkey to improve reporting.
Background Healthcare workers (HCWs) have increased risk for SARS-CoV-2 infection via contacts in hospitals, as well transmission the community. Serial interval, which is defined time between symptom onsets an infector–infectee pair, and incubation period are key parameters determining control strategies COVID-19. This study aimed to evaluate surveillance of HCWs estimate serial interval
