Abstract
Children of all ages can be infected with coronavirus disease (COVID-19) and can experience complications. Children with COVID-19 might present with many symptoms, a few symptoms, or be asymptomatic. The most common symptoms in children are fever and cough, and other common symptoms include nasal congestion or a runny nose, fatigue, and headache. Research indicates that most children recover from COVID-19 in one to two weeks with at-home care. Children and adolescents are generally at a lower risk of infection, and if an infection occurs, it is likely to be mild. However, some children and young people have had severe experiences with the disease, and a few have died. COVID-19-related measures have a profound effect on health and well-being, and for some, the impact may be lifelong.
