Children can tolerate COVID-19 more easily than adults. Doctors say: as a rule, young patients are diagnosed with a mild or moderate form of the disease. Newborns carry coronavirus almost always asymptomatically. In general, children are less likely to need oxygen support. Hospitalization, as a rule, is associated with the manifestation of concomitant pathologies.
Irina Bezruchko, head of the department of Minsk Regional Children's Hospital: "The older the children, and if they have any aggravating factors, for example, obesity, cardiovascular disease, kidney disease, the more severe the disease is. I would like to address parents and ask them to always ask for help on time. It doesn't matter if it's a coronavirus infection or any other."
Doctors recommend that parents of children with a confirmed diagnosis control the drinking regime and observe personal rules of hygiene and disease prevention.
