“…Moreover, the limited follow-up time for many of the reported studies rendered us unable to make concrete conclusions about mortality rates for pediatric oncology patients affected by COVID-19. It is also important to note that, while the majority of studies confirmed COVID-19 diagnosis in children through RT-PCR, a small subset of studies did not specifically report how the diagnosis of COVID-19 was made (i.e., 7 studies) ( 21 , 24 , 38 , 93 96 ); we have included these articles for completeness. Further, several studies included in this review were case reports or cohort/cross-sectional studies written up as letters to the editor.…”

“…Smaller series from Greece and Brazil reported mild disease courses, whereas data from the United Kingdom and the United States noted an approximately 10% incidence of severe disease. [19][20][21][22] More recently, a large registry-based study reported a 7.4% chance of severe disease and 2% mortality in high-income countries. 23 Another large observational study of 917 American children with cancer found that 9.2% were admitted to the ICU and 1.6% died.…”
