Abstract
COVID-19 (Coronavirus Disease 2019) has been started
in Wuhan, China, and spread worldwide and resulting in
many cases of death. COVID-19 attacks the respiratory tract
acutely and infected both children and adults. The number
of cases in children is less than in adults. By seeing from
the clinical aspect, the COVID-19 case in children is milder.
There are differences in immunology responses in children
and adults where children have higher immunology response
of COVID-19 than adults. Meanwhile, if the immunology
response is slow in adults, it may cause them infected by
COVID-19 with severe symptoms. There are some relations
between immunization with immunology response to SARSCoV-2 where children who already have BCG vaccination
has lower infection rates of acute respiratory tract case. This
study aims to know the difference between COVID-19 cases
that infected adults and children seen in various aspects.
