From that report. FYI Most secondary transmission of SARS and MERS occurred in the hospital setting. Transmission of COVID-19 is occurring in this context as well—3019 cases have been observed among health workers as of February 11, 2020 (of whom there have been 1716 confirmed cases and 5 deaths).1 However, this is not a major means of COVID-19 spread. Rather, it appears that considerable transmission is occurring among close contacts. Earlier in the report they discuss shear numbers. SARs and MERS were more deadly, but COVID is much more contagious. This is a very informative report.
