Among 3926 healthcare personnel in a multisite healthcare system, the minimal population prevalence of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) was 4.4% (bootstrap 95% confidence interval [CI], 3.7%–5.0%), and the infection fatality rate was 0.6% (bootstrap 95% CI, 0.0%–1.7%). Rates reflected both local community prevalence and hospital exposures but not specifically exposure on COVID-19 units.
