Resumo: TO THE EDITOR: As of March 10, 2020, the 2019 novel coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2) has been responsible for more than 110,000 infections and 4000 deaths worldwide, but data regarding the epidemiologic characteristics and clinical features of infected children are limited.1-3 A recent review of 72,314 cases by the Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention showed that less than 1% of the cases were in children younger than 10 years of age.2 In order to determine the spectrum of disease in children, we evaluated children infected with SARS-CoV-2 and treated at the Wuhan Children’s Hospital, the only center assigned by the central government for treating infected children under 16 years of age in Wuhan. Both symptomatic and asymptomatic children with known contact with persons having confirmed or suspected SARS-CoV-2 infection were evaluated. Nasopharyngeal or throat swabs were obtained for detection of SARS-CoV-2 RNA by established methods.4 The clinical outcomes were monitored up to March 8, 2020.

Foram avaliadas crianças sintomáticas e assintomáticas com sabido contato com pessoas com infecção por SARS-CoV-2 confirmada ou suspeita. Os cotonetes nasofaríngeos ou da garganta foram obtidos para a detecção do RNA da SARS-CoV-2 por métodos estabelecidos.4 Os resultados clínicos foram monitorados até 8 de março de 2020.Massachusetts Medical Society2020-04-03T11:36:02Z2020-04-03T11:36:02Z2020info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/articleapplication/pdfapplication/pdfLU, X.; ZHANG, L.; DU, H. et al.
