This study aims to describe the clinical characteristics and outcome of 92 infants (aged <12 months) with community-acquired coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) between March, 2020 and June, 2021 at a single center in Athens. Infants with COVID-19 developed mild disease (89, 96.7%), and were infected mostly by their household contacts (74, 80.4%). Disease complications were rare, indicating that hospitalization is the result of low threshold for admission rather than disease severity.
本研究旨在描述 2020 年 3 月至 2021 年 6 月期间在雅典的一家中心收治的 92 例(年龄<12 个月)社区获得性 2019 冠状病毒病(COVID-19)婴儿的临床特征和结局。患有 COVID-19 的婴儿病情较轻(89,96.7%),且主要由其家庭接触者感染(74,80.4%)。疾病并发症罕见,表明住院是由于低入院门槛而不是疾病严重程度导致的。
