Objective: to identify the profile of nursing professionals and the factors associated with covid-19 illness. Method: Quantitative research conducted with 209 nursing professionals from a large hospital, between September and November 2020, through an electronic questionnaire. Descriptive analysis of the data was performed in the Stata version 13 program. To investigate differences between proportions (p<0.05) contingency tables with chi-square were used. Results: Among the professionals who get sick from COVID-19, the majority were female (86.44%), over 40 years of age (57.63%), married or in a stable union (55.93%), with religion (91.53%), nursing technicians and assistants (69.49%), with training time equal to or greater than 11 years (76.27%), working time at the institution of up to six years (81.36%), without another employment relationship (59.32%). Participants reported changes in sleep (59.32%), appetite (67.80%), leisure time (96.61%), physical activity pattern (94.92%), mood (81.36%), presence of anxiety (81.36%). Anxiety predominated among professionals of technical and higher level (p-value = 0.01) and illness due to COVID-19 was associated with the category of nursing technicians/assistants (p-value = 0.05). Conclusion: a greater vulnerability to COVID-19 illness was identified among professionals who provide direct care to patients affected by COVID-19.
