COVID-19: in children, symptoms often don't reflect severity, transmission risk

Liz Scherer | Clinical Summary | 09 September 2022

Nasal swabs may be unreliable in children with COVID-19 infections.

Takeaway

SARS-CoV-2 may be under-recognized in young children aged 0-4 years; symptoms do not reflect infection severity/transmission risk.

Why this matters

Remain vigilant for SARS-CoV-2 in young patients presenting asymptomatically or only mildly symptomatic; encourage vaccination.
