'Keep your babies at home. Wash your hands. It’s hard to keep their little hands out of their mouths, but we encourage you to keep very close eye on them and their symptoms.'
Emmett Doster, of South Carolina was diagnosed with COVID-19 at age seven months."I checked his temperature and it was a low-grade fever to begin with, and pretty quickly it started to climb to 103," she said."We got on the phone with his pediatrician and ... we finally got the call to go get tested for urgent care."
Doster, her husband, Emmett, and his two siblings, ages 2 and 4, are quarantining at home for 14 days, under a legal contract with the South Carolina Department of Health and Environmental Control . "This virus does seem to be able to cause significant disease in children but [is] not dramatically different from other typical, common childhood infections," he told"GMA.""There are some small percentages of children, based on what we’re seeing in other countries, that do get sick and require hospitalization, but that is really not much different, at least at this point, than other typical respiratory viruses.
The most important thing parents can do is practice is social distancing, including keeping a six-feet distance from other people. "If your child has mild to moderate symptoms, it’s better not to take them in and certainly not to take them in to get tested because they probably won’t be," said O'Leary.
