An epidemic caused by SARS-Coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection has appeared in

from 35 cluster-onset families (COFs) and 41 cases from 16 solitary-onset families (SOFs).
The incidence of 2019 coronavirus disease (COVID-19) in COFs was significantly higher
than that of SOFs. Our study also showed that patients with exposure to high-risk factors …
