The emergence of novel coronavirus disease-2019 poses an unprecedented challenge to pediatricians. While the majority of children experience mild disease, initial case reports on young infants are conflicting. We present a case series of 8 hospitalized infants 60 days of age or younger with coronavirus disease-2019. A quarter of these patients had coinfections (viral or bacterial). None of these infants had severe disease. Continued vigilance in testing this vulnerable group of infants is warranted.
新型冠状病毒病-2019 的出现给儿科医生带来了前所未有的挑战。虽然大多数儿童病情较轻,但对小婴儿的最初病例报告却存在矛盾。我们报告了 8 例住院的 60 天龄或更年轻的婴儿患有新型冠状病毒病-2019 的病例系列。其中四分之一的患者合并感染(病毒或细菌)。这些婴儿均无重症疾病。需要对这一脆弱的婴儿群体进行持续监测和检测。
