Purpose The aim of the study was to identify settings associated with SARS-CoV-2 transmission throughout the

COVID-19 pandemic in France.

Methods Cases with recent SARS-CoV-2 infection were matched with controls (4:1 ratio) on age, sex, region,

population size, and calendar week. Odds ratios for SARS-CoV-2 infection were estimated for nine periods in models

adjusting for socio-demographic characteristics, health status, COVID-19 vaccine, and past infection.

Results Between October 27, 2020 and October 2, 2022, 175,688 cases were matched with 43,922 controls. An

increased risk of infection was documented throughout the study for open-space offices compared to offices without

open space (OR range across the nine periods: 1.12 to 1.57) and long-distance trains (1.25 to 1.88), and during most

of the study for convenience stores (OR range in the periods with increased risk: 1.15 to 1.44), take-away delivery

(1.07 to 1.28), car-pooling with relatives (1.09 to 1.68), taxis (1.08 to 1.89), airplanes (1.20 to 1.78), concerts (1.31 to

2.09) and night-clubs (1.45 to 2.95). No increase in transmission was associated with short-distance shared transport,

car-pooling booked over platforms, markets, supermarkets and malls, hairdressers, museums, movie theatres,

outdoor sports, and swimming pools. The increased risk of infection in bars and restaurants was no longer present in

restaurants after reopening in June 2021. It persisted in bars only among those aged under 40 years.

Conclusion Closed settings in which people are less likely to wear masks were most affected by SARS-CoV-2

transmission and should be the focus of air quality improvement.
