Abstract:
Faced with the risk of transmission of Sars-CoV-2, health professionals had to quickly learn how to protect themselves from possible contamination from the patients they cared for. The knowledge of the modes of dispersion of the virus made it possible to propose only complementary precautions "droplets" for the care of the patients with, for some, the need to wear a respiratory protection FFP2. After several months, we investigated the risk felt by the professionals and the feeling of safety that the different instructions concerning the wearing of surgical masks, FFP2 protection, gloves and hand hygiene gave them.
