Objective: To evaluate the factors associated with illness from covid-19 among nursing professionals who provide assistance in the context of the pandemic at a University Hospital in the interior of Minas Gerais. Methods: Quantitative, cross-sectional study, developed with nursing professionals, between August 2020 and January 2021, using a non-probabilistic sample, established by convenience. Nurses, technicians and nursing assistants were included, and professionals who did not work on the front line, who had already been vaccinated or who were on leave, were excluded. Results: The results point to an index of 30.4% of nursing professionals affected by covid-19. In addition, a shortage of personal protective equipment (PPE) was reported and most clinical manifestations were mild. Conclusion: The variables gender, number of people in the same household affected by covid-19 and sector of work were associated with the illness of professionals, however, further research is recommended to investigate other factors associated with the disease.
