Abstract

Children and adolescents infected with severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) are usually asymptomatic or have mild coronavirus disease (COVID-19) with low rates of hospitalization and death. Multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children (MIS-C) is a rare and severe complication of SARS-CoV-2 infection. This paper reviews an excerpt of the literature on disease burden and complications following COVID-19 in children and adolescents aged 0-17 years, in addition to the effects and adverse drug reactions of BNT162b2 and mRNA-1273 vaccinations among children and adolescents aged 5-17 years.
