Day by day the situation is turning worse with more positive cases and deaths. Children below 10 years, people above 60 years, and people suffering from several other diseases are considered vulnerable to COVID19. So, there is no doubt that panic has been raised among the parents regarding their child’s health.

The first thing you should understand as a parent is this is not the time to get panicked. Follow the instructions from the government and health departments. As per the data available to date from the outbreak of this epidemic, there are fewer cases of children testing positive reported compared to adult cases.

If your child shows the symptoms;

• Stay calm and act thoughtfully.
• Talk to a doctor regarding your child’s condition. Doctors can assess the severity of the condition. There are many reasons by which children can get a fever, cough, or sore throat. It is not necessarily COVID19. Only if your child has come in primary contact with a COVID positive person, COVID test is recommended. Follow the instructions of the doctor.
• Ensure that your child drinks lots of water and takes proper food.

• Observe them continuously. If any conditions like breathlessness, difficulty in breathing, sleepiness, fast breathing, not feeling hungry and thirsty, or any signs of dehydration arises, get medical assistance immediately.
