The novel coronavirus is now thought to have the potential to infect children. The youngest patient has been reported to be 1 month old. Because of the general susceptibility of the population, that is, few people in the population have specific or non-specific resistance to the novel coronavirus. Children are usually immunocompromised and are susceptible to novel coronavirus infection if they come into contact with infected patients or have been to an infected area, have close contact with patients, or have close contact with asymptomatic infected persons. Therefore, it is important to closely observe your child’s health and check for fever or breathing difficulties. If a child develops fever, cough, malaise, etc., and then has difficulty breathing, it is important to seek medical attention and take the child to a local fever clinic for a virus test or confirmatory test, etc. Content source: Dr. Yurai
