title: Coronavirus-associated pneumonia in previously healthy children.
abstract: The extent to which coronaviruses are associated with lower respiratory tract disease in previously healthy children without underlying medical conditions is unknown. We investigated instances of radiographically confirmed lower respiratory tract disease among symptomatic children with coronavirus infection. Here, we document the clinical courses of 2 previously healthy children with coronavirus-associated pneumonia.
