Abstract
SARS-CoV-2 infection poses a threat to all age groups; however, children have notably experienced less severe disease than adults. While many studies have been done to understand SARS-CoV-2 infection in adults, less is known about infection in children. Relatively little is understood about the virus produced by children who are infected. Using a cohort of pediatric inpatient clinical specimens, collected across a range of age groups spanning from 0-18 years we investigated the relationship between viral RNA and infectious viral titers.
