French case raises questions over coronavirus child spread COVID19
LYON, France - A nine-year-old who contracted COVID-19 in eastern France did not pass the virus on to any other pupils at three ski-schools, according to new research that suggests infants are not large spreaders of the disease.
A study published this month in the US journal Clinical Infectious Diseases looked at the case of the child, who continued to attend three ski clubs while unknowingly infected. All of those were placed in quarantine as a precaution, but none of them contracted COVID-19, not even the child's two siblings.Authors of the study said that the case of the child could "suggest that children might not be an important source of transmissions of this novel virus."
