Проведен анализ научной литературы по вопросам COVID-19 у медицинских работников с точки зрения вероятности профессионального характера коронавирусной инфекции при исполнении ими трудовых обязанностей. Рассмотрены основные документы Правительства РФ в отношении мер поддержки медработников, работающих с пациентами с наличием или с подозрением на COVID-19. Изучены некоторые вопросы распространения данной болезни с учетом звена «пациент - медработник». Выделены особенности инфекции COVID-19, клинические проявления и осложнения, которые касаются её расшифровки как профессионального заболевания.

The paper contains a literature review on COVID-19 in health care workers and demonstrates that the disease is of occupational character; features, clinical signs, and complications are described to provide evidence for such interpretation. It also addresses important documents issued by the Government of Russia to support medical professionals, some aspects of occupational risk in COVID-19, and the role of interactions between patients and health care workers in disease propagation.
