COVID-19 in Pediatric Population

Fear:

Children are most at risk, which is why school is out.

False.

Fact:

Children are probably at slightly less risk to have ill effects unless they have an underlying condition like asthma.

STAY CALM, children are least likely to contract Coronavirus (COVID-19) or be hospitalized with complications due to this virus.

However, they can be most likely to spread it to vulnerable adults because they are less likely to show symptoms and not wash their hands properly.
