Vaccination, regular handwashing, and mask-wearing for children over five are essential measures. Parents should monitor their children's health closely and keep them home from school if they have any symptoms of illness.
This is especially important for high-risk children with underlying health conditions like asthma, diabetes, or heart disease.
By taking these precautions, we can help keep children healthy and prevent the spread of viral infections. According to Dr. Kuldeep Kumar Grover, Head of critical care & Pulmonology at CK Birla Hospital, Gurgaon, told Hindustan Times, Covid-19 is a viral infection that has been around for some time.
