Abstract

Globally, 462.684 cases of COVID-19 infections have been reported since December 2019, including 20834 deaths (WHO, situation report, date 26/03/2020). 2401 deaths worldwide were found in the last 24 hours (25/3-26/3/2020). These numbers indicate the aggressive and devastating potential of SARS-CoV-2. The first teenager aged 16 died in Paris a few days ago, thus the first COVID 19 positive patient died in France in this age. She had a very short history of dry cough leading to hospitalization and death of around 2 days. In newborns and children no fatal cases are published so far with a moderate course of the disease. According to incomplete statistics, as on February 7, 2020, 285 children with SARS-COV-2 pneumonia and 10 newborns were reported to have been diagnosed in China. No pediatric patient had a fatal outcome, suggesting any „guardian angel“ in children. A new classification of clinical findings and treatment options of SARS-CoV-2 infection in children from China was reported [1].
