The analysis probably misses aged care workers, but I'm not sure clinical support staff are included in the DHHS reporting of HCW infections. DHHS reporting of HCW infections still far too opaque. See tweets by @healthcare_19

The denominator is the total susceptible population - both workers and non-workers. It must include both, otherwise cases in children and aged care would be excluded

Mmmm but if cases are more common in workers generally, then that might explain the higher OR. Similarly, if cases are more common in Melb than elsewhere in Vic, that could explain the OR as well. Lots of potential confounders

The discrepancy in regional vs metro is true for doctors, but not for nurses (who are greater proportion of total HCW population than doctors)pic.twitter.com/Htlx5KzIF9
