    Snippet: A particular population of interest is HCWs who, due to their contact with patients, are often at high risk of infection and may also be high-risk transmitters. Large numbers of HCWs were infected during the West African Ebola epidemic [60, 61] . However, the proportion of HCWs affected at different stages of the outbreak and the relative risk of acquisition for the HCWs compared with the general population could not be estimated since the total .....
    Document: A particular population of interest is HCWs who, due to their contact with patients, are often at high risk of infection and may also be high-risk transmitters. Large numbers of HCWs were infected during the West African Ebola epidemic [60, 61] . However, the proportion of HCWs affected at different stages of the outbreak and the relative risk of acquisition for the HCWs compared with the general population could not be estimated since the total number of HCWs was not systematically reported and changed during the course of the outbreak with the scale-up of interventions. Note that, depending on the transmission route, the definition of HCWs may need to include anyone working in a health-care setting who could be at risk (e.g. cleaners may be exposed to bodily fluids).
