 Scientists are shocked at the role of the child in spreading corona

Although children are infected with the coronavirus, it is very rare for them to be fatal. But scientists are shocked by their role in spreading the deadly virus. Children carry the virus in their noses and throats for three weeks, according to a South Korean study. The BBC has given this information in a report.

Previous studies have shown that most children with corona have mild symptoms. May was not again. But the study sheds light on the unresolved question of how they can spread the virus among others.

The study emphasizes the continued role of social distance and health protection with children returning to school.

Professor Russell Weiner, president of the Royal College of Pediatrics and Child Health, said there were three separate but related questions related to children and Kovid-19. That is, do children get infected with the virus, how much do they get affected, and do they spread it to others?

Weiner said, ‘We are sure that children can be infected with the virus. Antibody blood tests have shown that they are less likely to be infected than adults - especially those under 12 years of age. And while scientists are confident that they are less likely to get sick than adults, many do not have symptoms. A British study published last Friday confirmed this. We know very little about the answer to the third question, and South Korean research has tried to find the answer. '

The study was performed on 91 children, including those who had mild symptoms or no symptoms at all. The virus was found in their noses three weeks later. Authorities say the presence of the virus in the nose means it can spread to others.

This study provided new information about children as carriers of the virus. However, like other studies, it also has weaknesses. The fact that the virus is found in the nose of children does not prove that it can spread like in adults. Head of the Department of Pediatrics at the National Children's Hospital in Washington DC. Roberto Debiasi says children carry the virus. So it would be unreasonable to think that they have no role in spreading it. He believes that most infected children, whether or not they have mild symptoms, can play a role in spreading the virus in the community.
