Week of October 26, 2020 MMWR Weekly Briefing

    • Science

This week, MMWR published seven reports. Two reports examine the impact of COVID-19 on healthcare workers. Another report focuses on the increasing role of telehealth in delivering healthcare during the pandemic. One report describes how COVID-19 spread rapidly during an overnight high school retreat in Wisconsin among people who had recently tested negative. A report details a COVID-19 outbreak among a university's men's and women's soccer teams. Another report describes how behaviors to prevent the spread of COVID-19, while reported by the majority of all adults, are least common among young adults. The final report describes the successful adoption of mitigation strategies by election officials, poll workers and voters to minimize COVID-19 spread during a statewide primary in Delaware.
