Subject: [MCOH-EH] Exposure assessment of fully vaccinated HCPs with presumptive Delta variant versus earlier variants
 
Caution: This message was sent from outside the University of Manitoba.

Trying to get a consensus…are you managing exposures in fully vaccinated HCPs  to COVID-19 patients, i.e., without appropriate PPE in place…differently with presumption that the exposure was to Delta.

 

Typically, it’s unmasked patient, surgical mask HCP, no protective eyewear.

 

I haven’t seen or heard any “official” guidance yet.

Thanks
