“…Knowledge about neonatal outcomes of SARS-CoV-2 infection is relatively limited. Immaturity of both innate and adaptive immune systems make this group highly vulnerable to infection [70]. Interestingly, the majority of neonates born to mother with COVID-19 were not infected, and to date few reports have suggested that neonates have been affected by COVID-19.…”

Background Despite the streaks of severity, severe acute respiratory syndrome-coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection is, in general, less frequent and severe in children than in adults. We searched for causal evidence of this mystery. Data sources An extensive search strategy was designed to identify papers on coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). We searched Ovid MEDLINE, PubMed, EMBASE databases, and Cochrane library and carried out a review on the causes of this dilemma. Results Our searches produced 81 relevant articles. The review showed that children accounted for a lower percentage of reported cases, and they also experienced less severe illness courses. Some potential explanations, including the tendency to engage the upper airway, the different expression in both receptors of angiotensin-converting enzyme and renin-angiotensin system, a less vigorous immune response, the lower levels of interleukin (IL)-6, IL-10, myeloperoxidase, and P-selectin and a higher intracellular adhesion molecule-1, a potential protective role of lymphocytes, and also lung infiltrations might have protective roles in the immune system-respiratory tract interactions. Finally, what have shed light on this under representation comes from two studies that revealed high-titer immunoglobulin-G antibodies against respiratory syncytial virus and mycoplasma pneumonia, may carry out cross-protection against SARS-CoV-2 infection, just like what suggested about the vaccines. Conclusions These results require an in-depth look. Properties of the immune system including a less vigorous adaptive system beside a preliminary potent innate response and a trained immunity alongside a healthier respiratory system, and their interactions, might protect children against SARS-CoV-2 infection. However, further studies are needed to explore other possible causes of this enigma.

“…Currently, COVID-19 disease in pregnant women is not an indication for termination of pregnancy [12]. Mild and stable cases should be monitored, and the pregnancy continued, and in critical situations, when there is a high risk to the life of the fetus and mother, termination of pregnancy should be considered [11]. A multidisciplinary team should manage cases of pregnancy in women with COVID-19.…”

COVID-19 disease is currently an extremely difficult problem for healthcare systems in Poland and in the world. The growing number of infections makes one suspect that the incidence of COVID-19 cases will also increase in the population of pregnant women. The article presents case reports of two patients with positive results of the SARS-CoV-2 test and a literature review on COVID-19 during pregnancy.

“…Thus, essential notes obtained from these webinars have been shared with the other members 6 . Additionally, the team members prepared review articles, regarding the most relevant knowledge on COVID-19, which are in the publication process [7][8][9] . Besides, this crisis has affected face-toface meetings and the communication of members who are living in different parts of the country; an online meeting was organized among the group members after completing the final e-book, the record of the Zoom meeting is available from YouTube and it gives a reflection of the source of the group's motivation -solidarity and collaboration 10 .…”
