摘要: Objective. In April 2009, 2009 pandemic influenza A (H1N1) (hereafter, pH1N1) virus was identified in California, which caused widespread illness throughout the United States. We evaluated pH1N1 transmission among exposed healthcare personnel (HCP) and assessed use effectiveness of personal protective equipment (PPE) early outbreak.Design. Cohort study.Setting. Two hospitals 1 outpatient clinic Southern California during March 28–April 24, 2009.Participants. Sixty-three HCP to 6 first 8 cases laboratory-confirmed States.Methods. Baseline follow-up questionnaires were used collect demographic, epidemiologic, clinical data. Paired serum samples obtained test for pH1N1-specific antibodies by microneutralization hemagglutination-inhibition assays. Serology results compared with work setting, role, self-reported PPE use.Results. Possible healthcare-associated 9 (14%) 63 expose...
