Study: No evidence that coronavirus-positive children under 10 can infect adults

From the Daily Mail:

“No child is known to have passed on Covid-19 to an adult, a medical review has found, as evidence suggests youngsters ‘do not play a significant role’ in transmission.

review of paediatric coronavirus evidence revealed ‘the China/WHO joint commission could not recall episodes during contact tracing where transmission occurred from a child to an adult.’    

Researchers have also failed to uncover any cases of children under the age of 10 transmitting the virus, which has killed more than 26,000 people in the UK.”
