The diagnoses resulted from routine isolation and real-time RT-PCR-based testing for SARS-CoV-2 for febrile infants in an outbreak setting. [2] [3] [4] Even in the setting of asymptomatic or mildly symptomatic infection, children may represent a source of SARS-CoV-2 spread in community or hospital settings, so understanding the spectrum of COVID-19 illness in infants, particularly regarding conditions that result in hospitalization, is crucial to establishment of effective infection control interventions. Vital signs and pertinent laboratory findings appear in the A real-time RT-PCR assay performed at the New York State Department of Health detected SARS-CoV-2 RNA in the patient's NP sample. ./cache/cord-339859-anatn295.txt ./txt/cord-339859-anatn295.txt
