Coronavirus Infections in Children Including COVID-19: An Overview of the Epidemiology, Clinical Features, Diagnosis, Treatment and Prevention Options in Children.
Petra Zimmermann,Nigel Curtis +1 more
TL;DR: Preliminary evidence suggests children are just as likely as adults to become infected with SARS-CoV-2 but are less likely to be symptomatic or develop severe symptoms, but the importance of children in transmitting the virus remains uncertain.

COVID-19 in Children, Pregnancy and Neonates: A Review of Epidemiologic and Clinical Features.
Petra Zimmermann,Nigel Curtis +1 more
TL;DR: The epidemiologic and clinical features of children infected with SARS-CoV-2 reported in pediatric case series to date are summarized and the perinatal outcomes of neonates born to women infected with the virus in pregnancy are summarized.

TL;DR: Among healthy children aged 1 to 5 years, daily administration of 2000 IU compared with 400 IU of vitamin D supplementation did not reduce overall wintertime upper respiratory tract infections and these findings do not support the routine use of high-dose vitamin D supplements in children for the prevention of viral upper respiratory tracts infections.
Journal ArticleDOI
What's New With the Old Coronaviruses?
TL;DR: What is known about the virology, epidemiology, and disease associated with pediatric infection with the common community-acquired human coronaviruses, including species 229E, OC43, NL63, and HKU1, and the coronaviral responsible for past world-wide epidemics due to severe acute respiratory syndrome and Middle East respiratory syndrome coronavirus are discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI
The human viral challenge model: accelerating the evaluation of respiratory antivirals, vaccines and novel diagnostics.
TL;DR: The disease burden for acute respiratory viral infections for which current conventional development strategies have failed to produce therapeutics that meet clinical need is described and its utility to assist in the development of novel diagnostics is described.

TL;DR: The incidence of community-acquired pneumonia requiring hospitalization was highest among the oldest adults and despite current diagnostic tests, no pathogen was detected in the majority of patients.

Global burden of childhood pneumonia and diarrhoea
Christa L Fischer Walker,Igor Rudan,Li Liu,Harish Nair,Harish Nair,Evropi Theodoratou,Zulfiqar A Bhutta,Katherine L. O'Brien,Harry Campbell,Robert E. Black +9 more
TL;DR: The epidemiology of childhood diarrhoea and that of pneumonia overlap, which might be partly because of shared risk factors, such as undernutrition, suboptimum breastfeeding, and zinc deficiency, and action is needed globally and at country level to accelerate the reduction.
Journal ArticleDOI
Estimates of world-wide distribution of child deaths from acute respiratory infections
TL;DR: This analysis suggests that throughout the world 1.9 million children died from ARI in 2000, 70% of them in Africa and southeast Asia.
Journal ArticleDOI
Epidemiology of viral respiratory infections
TL;DR: Advances in diagnostic techniques have enabled more complete identification of the viruses involved in respiratory infections, which has aided in the ability to direct specific therapeutic agents at the causative pathogens.
