COVID-19

How do children’s immune systems respond to COVID-19 compared to adults?



With the help of schoolchildren and their teachers, scientists from the UK Health Security Agency (UK HSA) and the University of Birmingham published research which shows that children have stronger immune responses to SARS-CoV-2 than adults. This may explain why children tend to have milder COVID-19 symptoms. They also found that some children who had never had COVID-19 might already be protected from other related coronaviruses that usually cause the common cold.
