Deskripsi
Children are less likely to be infected with SARS-CoV-2 and develop less severe disease than adults, which makes estimation of infection rates challenging. Here, the authors conduct seroprevalence surveys of children in Germany, describe changes in prevalence over time, and identify risk factors for infection.
