方法2020年3月13日，马萨诸塞州总医院开设了一家门诊，根据我们当时掌握的最佳信息，对有可能与COVID-19一致的急性症状的员工进行评估和检测。所有出现发烧、肌痛、胃肠道症状、流鼻涕、咳嗽、呼吸急促、喉咙痛以及后来的嗅觉丧失症状的员工都需要联系职业健康服务部门，然后由他们将他们转诊到检测中心。我们审查了2020年3月13日至4月2日期间提交并接受检测的人员的电子病历（此后评估在不同的临床地点之间更加广泛地传播），以提取人口统计信息、暴露、旅行和病史、症状（记录在自由文本字段中）和测试结果。
METHODSOn March 13, 2020, Massachusetts General Hospital opened an outpatient clinic to evaluate and test employees with acute symptoms that were potentially consistent with COVID-19, based on the best information that we had at the time. All employees with symptoms including fevers, myalgias, gastrointestinal symptoms, runny nose, cough, shortness of breath, sore throat, and, later, anosmia were required to contact occupational health services who then referred them to the testing site. We reviewed the electronic medical record of those who presented and underwent testing from March 13 to April 2, 2020 (after which evaluations were more diffusely spread among different clinical sites) to extract demographic information, exposure, travel and medical history, symptoms (recorded in free-text fields) and test results.
