@drphilhammond Not quite the answer to your question but Lancet article showed similar infection rates in non-clinical and frontline nhs staff. I guess numbers are not high enough to be significant...yet. https://t.co/IGGmWKqL4x

Screening symptomatic health-care workers for COVID19. In 1654 staff SARS-CoV-2 was detected in 240 (14%) tests. Positivity rates rose steadily throughout the testing period, to 29 (20%) of 146 staff tested on March 30–31. https://t.co/XaIpgPpjdK

This study suggests HCWs are more likely to acquire SARS-CoV-2 from community transmission than from patients in their line of work. I find this reassuring
