Abstract

The incidence and risk factors for poor outcome in patients with COVID are well known, as are the protective measures in high-risk populations. In contrast, the epidemiological and clinical behavior of this disease in the population of elite athletes who are the paradigm of good health is poorly understood. Data on COVID in athletes are scarce and have focused preferentially on the consequences on sports performance of confinement measures and on the pathophysiological risks of infected athletes. Real Madrid is a large elite sports institution with facilities in the City of Madrid where 600 athletes train daily. The incidence of COVID during a study period of 671 days of observation in athletes, professional or amateur, working in the institution has been 0,74 per 1,000 days of exposure. The disease has been asymptomatic or oligosymptomatic in all athletes and did not require any hospital admissions. The different teams did not have to suspend any of its sportive commitments for COVID during the study period and there was no evidence of outbreaks of internal transmission between members of the different teams.

COVID 流行病在精英体育俱乐部中的影响和控制：皇家马德里。

COVID 患者的发病率和不良预后的风险因素以及高危人群的保护措施已广为人知。相比之下，人们对作为健康典范的精英运动员群体中这种疾病的流行病学和临床表现却知之甚少。有关运动员感染 COVID 的数据很少，而且主要集中在禁闭措施对运动成绩的影响以及受感染运动员的病理生理风险方面。皇家马德里是一家大型精英体育机构，其设施位于马德里市，每天有 600 名运动员在此训练。在为期 671 天的观察研究中，在该机构工作的职业或业余运动员的 COVID 发病率为 0.74/1000。所有运动员均无症状或症状不明显，也无需入院治疗。在研究期间，不同的运动队都没有因为 COVID 而暂停任何体育活动，也没有证据表明不同运动队的成员之间爆发过内部传播。

期刊介绍： Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance. Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
