COVID 19: Children should be Treated Even in Absence of Symptoms

Hirsch Roberto R, Carvallo Héctor E

The current pandemic by COVID 19 leaves new teachings at every moment. One of them is that children (especially those from early childhood) have a viral load of COVID 19 up to 10 times higher than adults, even though they are, in their vast majority, asymptomatic. This is of enormous sanitary importance, since they are "healthy" carriers, who can transmit the disease. For this reason, the authors emphasize the need to treat this age group with nasal and oral carrageenan, in order to cut the chain of contagion.
