A certain group of people practically does not get coronavirus, but even if infected, the disease is mild.
According to statistics compiled by scientists, the incidence rate of Chinese COVID-19 is virtually zero in children and adolescents. Patients aged 0 to 19 years old account for only 1% of all infected.
According to experts, this is due to the fact that children have a stronger immune system than adults, who are often diagnosed with chronic diseases. However, the information is still insufficient.
Some doctors tend to think that a small percentage of sick children is the merit of caring parents who strictly follow the hygiene standards of their babies.The main risk group today are people over 60 years old with concomitant chronic diseases.
Recall
- In Ukraine, the child was hospitalized with suspected coronavirus.
- Doctors spoke about the fate of a newborn with coronavirus.
- WHO has developed a coronavirus test that can be taken online.
