*The percentage of nonimmune HCPs that received the vaccine (without any history of illness or positive serology). Chi square test was performed. For different professional categories two different analyses were conducted; either a) comparison among two groups: physicians compared to other professions or b) comparison among “physicians and nurses” and “paramedical and others” HCPs.
