We are pleased to announce that IntubateCOVID is now open to the USA! More countries to follow! In the UK, we have registered 393 intubations in the last week & 6.6% of respondents developed COVID-19. Register your intubations and COVID-19 outcomes here: intubatecovid.org

To clarify, these respondents are people who were either 1) the intubator/laryngoscopist or 2) an assistant in the room. So 6.6% (so far) of the people in the "hot room" have now had symptoms or been diagnosed as #COVID19 positive by lab test.
