  2. *Multivariable model 2 is identical to model 1, but additionally includes the variable “SARS-CoV-2-positivity of index healthcare worker”. Model 3 is identical to model 1, but unvaccinated healthcare workers are excluded and the variable “Month of first SARS-CoV-2 vaccination” is newly included
  3. P-values with a significance level of < 0.05 are shown in bold
