U.S. Children With COVID-19 Less Likely To Be Hospitalized Than Adults

患有COVID-19的美国儿童住院的可能性比成人低

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has more reassuring news about coronavirus infections among children.

美国疾病控制与预防中心公布了更多有关儿童感染冠状病毒的可靠消息。

A study published Monday finds that people in the United States under the age of 18 are far less likely to fall ill with COVID-19 or require intensive care, compared with older Americans.

周一公布的一项研究发现,与美国老年人相比,美国18岁以下的人患COVID-19病或需要重症监护的可能性要小得多。

患有COVID-19的美国儿童住院的可能性比成人低

The study looked at about 149.000 infections for which age was known that were reported in the U.S. through April 2. Of those, 2.572 were among people under the age of 18. That's less than 2% of total cases, even though that age group makes up 22% of the U.S. population.

该研究调查了截至4月2日美国已知年龄的约14.9万例感染病例。其中,2572人年龄在18岁以下。尽管这个年龄段的人占美国人口的22%,但这一比例(患病比例)还不到2%。

The CDC cautions that most reports of coronavirus cases among children are incomplete, which adds uncertainty to the report's specific numbers.

美国疾病控制与预防中心警告说,大多数关于儿童冠状病毒病例的报告都是不完整的,这给报告的具体数字增加了不确定性。

Relatively few children with COVID-19 ended up in the hospital, and fewer still required intensive care. But hospitalization status was known in only 29% of cases involving children.

患有COVID-19的儿童最终住院的人数相对较少,需要重症监护的人数更少。但只有29%的儿童有住院情况。

Based on the partial data analyzed in this study, between 5.7% and 20% of sick children end up in the hospital, and 2% or fewer end up in intensive care, the paper says. For adults ages 18-64. the proportion hospitalized was between 10% and 33%, and 1.4% to 4.5% required intensive care.

论文说,根据本研究分析的部分数据,5.7%至20%的患病儿童最终住进了医院,2%或更少的儿童最后住进了重症监护病房。18至64岁的成年人中,住院的比例在10%至33%之间,需要重症监护的比例在1.4%至4.5%之间。

Hospital admission was most common with children under the age of 1 or young people with underlying health conditions, the CDC report says. The study observed three deaths among the population it covered.

美国疾病控制与预防中心的报告说,1岁以下儿童或有潜在健康问题的年轻人入院最常见。该研究观察了其中三例死亡。

More than a quarter of children didn't show any one of the three classic signs of this disease: fever, cough and shortness of breath. And only 56% of the cases sampled had included fever as a specific symptom. That means many children may be spreading the disease even though they don't seem to be sick.

超过四分之一的儿童没有表现出三种典型症状中的任何一种:发烧、咳嗽和呼吸急促。在抽样的病例中,只有56%有发烧的特定症状。这意味着许多儿童可能正在传播这种疾病,即使他们看起来没有生病。

Only 7% of the cases in people under the age of 18 can be explained with known risk factors, such as travel to a country where the disease was circulating widely. That means children are picking up the disease in their communities — and quite likely spreading it.

在18岁以下人群中,只有7%的病例可以用已知的风险因素来解释,比如去一个疾病广泛传播的国家旅行。这意味着儿童正在他们的社区中感染这种疾病,并很可能传播它。

The authors conclude: "Because persons with asymptomatic and mild disease, including children, are likely playing a role in transmission and spread of COVID-19 in the community, social distancing and everyday preventive behaviors are recommended for persons of all ages to slow the spread of the virus, protect the health care system from being overloaded, and protect older adults and persons of any age with serious underlying medical conditions."

作者总结道:“由于包括儿童在内的无症状和轻度疾病患者可能在社区中传播COVID-19.因此建议所有年龄段的人保持社会距离和进行日常预防行为,以减缓病毒的传播,保护医疗保健系统不崩溃,保护老年人和有严重潜在疾病的任何年龄段的人。”
