We conducted a large-scale, multicenter, cross-sectional seroepidemiologic household transmission study in southwest Germany during May 11–August 1, 2020. We included 1,625 study participants from 405 households that each had ≥1 child and 1 reverse transcription PCR–confirmed SARS-CoV-2–infected index case-patient. The overall secondary attack rate was 31.6% and was significantly higher in exposed adults (37.5%) than in children (24.6%–29.2%; p = <0.015); the rate was also significantly higher when the index case-patient was >60 years of age (72.9%; p = 0.039). Other risk factors for infectiousness of the index case-patient were SARS-CoV-2–seropositivity (odds ratio [OR] 27.8, 95% CI 8.26–93.5), fever (OR 1.93, 95% CI 1.14–3.31), and cough (OR 2.07, 95% CI 1.21–3.53).
