  • 5 March 15:30 GMT — China study suggests children are as likely to be infected as adults

    Children are just as likely to get infected with the new coronavirus as adults, finds one of the most detailed studies yet published on the spread of the virus, known as SARS-CoV-2. The analysis — based on data from Shenzhen, China — provides a partial answer to one of the most pressing questions surrounding the outbreak: the role of children.

    • Coronavirus latest: The outbreak in Italy went undetected for weeks Updates on the respiratory illness that has infected hundreds of thousands of people and killed several thousand. 25 March 1:00 GMT — The outbreak in Italy went undetected for weeks The novel coronavirus SARS-CoV-2 was in Northern Italy as early as 1 January. An epidemiological analysis of Lombardy, the epicentre of the outbreak in Italy, reveals that the first onset of symptoms in the country occurred weeks before the disease was reported there on 20 February. The study looks at nearly 6,000 laboratory-confirmed cases to track how the outbreak unfolded in the region. It was posted to the arXiv preprint server on 20 March.

    • Nasal Gene Expression of Angiotensin-Converting Enzyme 2 in Children and Adults Supinda Bunyavanich, MD, MPH1; Anh Do, PhD2; Alfin Vicencio, MD1 Author Affiliations Article Information JAMA. Published online May 20, 2020. doi:10.1001/jama.2020.8707 Children account for less than 2% of identified cases of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19).1,2 It is hypothesized that the lower risk among children is due to differential expression of angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2),3 the receptor that severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) uses for host entry.4 We investigated ACE2 gene expression in the nasal epithelium of children and adults. Methods We conducted a retrospective examination of nasal epithelium from individuals aged 4 to 60 years encountered within the Mount Sinai Health System, New York, New York, during 2015-2018. Samples were collected from individuals with and without asthma for research on nasal biomarkers of asthma. The study was approved by the Mount Sinai institutional review board. Written informed consent was obtained from participants (or their parents for minors). Nasal epithelium was collected using a cytology brush that was immediately placed in RNA stabilization fluid and stored at −80 °C. RNA was isolated within 6 months. RNA samples were checked for quality and sequenced as a single batch in 2018. Sequence data processing included sequence alignment and normalization of gene expression counts across genes and samples.
