Comparison of the clinical and laboratory features of covid and influenza in children
Conclusions. There are no symptoms characteristic of a single infectious agent, with flu-like disorders being the most common. In addition, laboratory tests do not help in the differential diagnosis but show a limited inflammatory response in COVID-19. This could explain the fewer complications compared to adulthood, with a less severe clinical course.Keywords: COVID-19; Influenza; children
