While fewer children have been sick with COVID-19 compared to adults, children can be infected with the virus that causes COVID-19, can get sick from COVID-19, and can spread the virus that causes COVID-19 to others. Children, like adults, who have COVID-19 but have no symptoms ("asymptomatic") can still spread the virus to others.
Most children with COVID-19 have mild symptoms or have no symptoms at all. However, some children can get severely ill from COVID-19. They might require hospitalization, intensive care, or a ventilator to help them breathe. In rare cases, they might die.
CDC and partners are investigating a rare but serious medical condition associated with COVID-19 in children called Multisystem Inflammatory Syndrome in Children (MIS-C). We do not yet know what causes MIS-C and who is at increased risk for developing it. Learn more about MIS-C.

PUYALLUP, Wash. - Eli Sevener was a star athlete for the Puyallup High School Vikings. And what happened isn't supposed to happen to young people.
But, COVID 19 has claimed Sevener's life at 19. The word went out over Twitter from his brother Zach on Wednesday.
"It breaks my heart to inform everyone that Eli has been taken off life support and has passed on to heaven this afternoon. Our family is devastated and in shock by the way everything happened. He was such a fantastic brother, friend, co-worker and son," Zach Sevener said. "He had so much more to give to this world."

Jules Heningburg was sprinting up hills and playing pick-up basketball about a month after being diagnosed with COVID-19.
He was asymptomatic and not contagious. After quarantining and following proper health guidelines, the Premier Lacrosse League player felt fit and ready to return to the field.
His season ended before it began. The 24-year-old Redwoods LC star left the league's bubble in July after doctors said that tests showed he was at high risk for cardiac arrest with high-intensity training.
