    Document: The copyright holder for this preprint . https://doi.org/10.1101/2020.03.23.20041913 doi: medRxiv preprint oropharyngeal swabs were used for testing, which may have a slightly lower sensitivity than a nasopharyngeal swab. 5 To the best of our knowledge, this report is the first to describe the prevalence, the clinical presentation and early outcomes of COVID-19 in HCWs, which may be helpful for others seeking to identify HCWs suspected for COVID-19 in an outbreak situation. A limitation of our evaluation is that screening of HCWs was based on the presence of fever or mild respiratory symptoms in the last ten days, and that no data were collected in HCWs without these symptoms. The sensitivity and specificity of the reported symptoms could therefore not be estimated.
