Conclusion
To our knowledge, this study is the largest reported cohort of children
with pediatric patients with COVID-19 in Turkey. A clear understanding
of the local epidemiology of corona virus infections and identification
of risk factors is critical for the successful implementation of the
prevention and control program. Long and prospective studies are needed
to provide a clear understanding of the local epidemiology of
respiratory tract infections and identification of risk factors, the
successful implementation of a prevention and control program, and to
clarify the role of respiratory pathogens.
