A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

This prospective cohort study examines COVID-19 infection among children in Norway, focusing on three main areas: epidemiological risk factors, the natural history of the disease including immunological responses, and long-term effects such as post-infectious fatigue. Children aged 0-18 years admitted to hospitals with suspected COVID-19 will be followed for six months, with those confirmed to have the virus serving as cases and those without as controls. The study aims to identify risk factors for severe outcomes, understand the immune response to the infection, and assess the prevalence of long-lasting complications.
