All children under 1 year old, who have not been vaccinated against Covid-19, were hospitalized with a high fever of 38-39 degrees Celsius or higher, runny nose, cough, fussiness, and loss of appetite. Before being hospitalized, most of the children had their parents buy medicine for them to take at home but did not get better. Many people mistakenly thought their children had influenza A, influenza B... It was only when they were hospitalized for testing that they were confirmed to have Covid-19.

Dr. Nguyen Huu Vinh, Head of Planning and Synthesis Department (Hai Duong Children's Hospital) said that children with Covid-19 who are treated at home without proper regimen and for a long time can cause dangerous complications related to the respiratory system. Therefore, when children show abnormal health symptoms, parents need to take them to see a doctor for timely examination and treatment advice. Parents should not let their children come into contact with adults who show signs of illness, limit going to crowded places, and ensure children have balanced daily meals to increase their resistance.
