Pediatric COVID-19

Pediatric COVID-19 refers to COVID-19 infections in children. While most children experience mild or no symptoms, they can still spread the virus to others. Some children may develop more severe illness or complications, though this is less common than in adults. Vaccination is encouraged for eligible children to help protect them and those around them. Pediatricians monitor COVID-19 patterns in children closely, as their immune systems respond differently than adults. It's important for parents to stay informed and follow health guidelines to keep their children safe from COVID-19 and its variants.
