Twelve children who likely contracted COVID-19 at three childcare operations in Utah infected some of their parents and siblings, according to a U.S. study, adding to evidence that very young kids can transmit the disease.
Previous studies had suggested children aged 10 years or older can efficiently transmit COVID-19 in school settings.
From the 12 documented cases acquired at the childcare facilities, virus transmission was found among at least 12 of 46 non-facility contacts, such as parents - one of whom required hospitalization - siblings and an aunt. From April 1 to July 10, Salt Lake County identified 17 childcare facilities, including daycare centers and day camps, with at least two confirmed COVID-19 cases within a 14-day period. Data in the CDC report involves only outbreaks in three of these.
