Features of the course of Covid-19 in children
Abstract
On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization announced the start of the COVİD-19 (Coronavirus Disease 2019) pandemic. The researchers found that the number of infected children is significantly lower than in other age groups. Preliminary data allows us to emphasize that today, COVİD-19 in children is milder and has a favorable outcome. At the same time, it is children, being the main potential source of spread, that contribute to maintaining the pandemic.
