Furthermore, symptomatic COVID-19 testing in the last 5\u2009weeks of training in those who completed arrival quarantine was compared to testing in the last 5\u2009weeks for trainees who arrived between February 16, 2020, and March 16, 2020, and did not undergo arrival quarantine. Nominal variables were compared by chi-square test, and continuous variables were compared by Mann\u2013Whitney U test.
