dc.description.abstractA high percentage of healthcare workers (HCWs) who had met the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention criteria for returning to work 5 days after symptom onset remained positive for their return-to-work COVID-19 antigen test, suggesting continued infectiousness. Boosted HCWs were more likely to be antigen positive on their return-to-work test compared to unvaccinated HCWs, which merits further research.en
