Is there an indication that these kids got COVID?
- toomuchtodo 5y ago> Participants were eligible if they tested positive for SARS-CoV-2 by random polymerase chain reaction swab (n=62), a positive antibody test (n=63), or had typical symptoms and were determined to have covid-19 by two independent clinicians (n=73). > The prevalence of pre-existing conditions was low (obesity: 20%, hypertension: 6%, diabetes: 2%, heart disease: 4%), and less than a fifth (18%) of individuals had been hospitalised with covid-19.
- tremon 5y agofrom the ECDC update posted by tpm in various locations: 5/10 tested positive for covid-19, 5/11 tested positive for adenovirus. None tested positive for viral hepatitis. Laboratory investigations of the cases excluded viral hepatitis types A, B, C, D and E in all cases. Of the 13 cases reported by Scotland for which detailed information is available regarding testing, three tested positive for SARS-CoV-2 infection, five tested negative and two were documented to have had an infection in the three months before presentation. Eleven of these 13 cases had results for adenovirus testing and five tested positive.
- mcphage 5y agoThank you :-)
- formerkrogemp 5y agoI'd imagine most of the population has gotten at this point.
- mcphage 5y agoI mean, I don't think I have—but I still wear a mask when I'm out and about, and... yeah, I have a desk job.
- formerkrogemp 5y agoI wear a mask when I'm out and about as well, but where I'm at only a minority are still wearing masks. With vaccination rates in the US so low and funding ending for shots and antiviral treatments, I do wonder and worry what the future holds. Stay safe.
