[SlayNews] Not a single healthy child aged between the ages of 5 and 18 has died from COVID-19 in the first 15 months of the pandemic, a study by German scientists has found.
"Overall, the SARS-CoV-2-associated burden of a severe disease course or death in children and adolescents is low," the scientists stated in a new report.
"This seems particularly the case for 5-11-year-old children without comorbidities."
While the virus has yet to claim the lives of any healthy children between the ages of 5 and 18, only six children and adolescents have died in that age range due to severe preexisting conditions. |
