-a woman
-a health care worker or someone who could not telework
-living in crowded housing

The #Epicov study confirmed these findings & showed that people born outside of Europe had a higher seroprevalence of #SARSCoV2 compared to those born in France
This observed difference disappeared when socio-economic conditions were taken into account

People’s living conditions during the Spring lockdown & socioeconomic factors:
21% of people said they could not isolate a sick person in a separate room at home. This increased to 30% among the most socially disadvantaged
