Prospective cohort study of COVID-19 infection among children in Norway.
This nation-wide, prospective cohort study of COVID-19 infection addresses three main issues: 1) Epidemiological risk factors; 2) Natural history (including immunological mechanisms and long term effects) and 3) Support of infection prevention. Also, the study focuses solely on children.
