"This study was carried out in the biggest social security institution in Mexico, which provides care for more than 50% of the Mexican population. We found that doctors had the lowest risk of COVID-19 infection, while other groups who provide indirect to patients had an increased risk of infection and death, such as ambulance personnel, social workers and patient transporters."
