Among 880 healthcare workers with a positive SARS-CoV-2 test, 264 (30.0%) infections were identified following receipt of at least one vaccine dose. Median SARS-CoV-2 cycle threshold values were highest among individuals receiving two vaccine doses, corresponding to lower viral shedding. Vaccination might lead to lower transmissibility of SARS-CoV-2.
