title="Updated principles of prevention, diagnosis and treatment of COVID-19 in children in Poland – recommendations for paediatricians and family medicine doctors",
abstract="Since late 2021, we have observed a significant increase in the proportion of children infected with SARS-CoV-2. The course of the disease in children is usually sparsely symptomatic or asymptomatic. However, the predominance of new virus variants makes children more likely to become symptomatically ill and require hospitalisation. This paper aims to update recommendations for managing a child with COVID-19 in out- and inpatient settings. Current options for prevention and antiviral treatment are discussed, noting the limited availability of therapy for children. In most children with COVID-19, the basis for treatment remains symptomatic and supportive therapy and measures to reduce SARS-CoV-2 infection spread.",
