Abstract
LOPEZ-OLMEDO, Nancy et al. Family and household characteristics associated with seropositive cases to SARS-CoV-2 across Mexican households. Salud pública Méx [online]. 2021, vol.63, n.6, pp.807-812. Epub Feb 27, 2023. ISSN 0036-3634. https://doi.org/10.21149/13086.
Objective:
To assess the association of family and housing characteristics with the number of seropositive cases to SARS-CoV-2 in households.
Materials and methods:
We analyzed 874 households from Encuesta Nacional de Salud y Nutrición (Ensanut) 2020 Covid-19 using Poisson regression models.
Results:
The number of seropositive family members was higher among families composed of children/adolescents, adults and older adults, households with more than two members per bedroom, and among households with closed windows. No association was found for bathroom availability and piped water.
Conclusions:
Family composition and housing characteristics can impose significant structural barriers to safe home confinement.
