“Could toddlers get the coronavirus?”
I am worried that my 2 year old could get the coronavirus. Could toddlers get the coronavirus?

Yes, toddlers can be infected. They do not seem to experience much illness when they do. Presumably they can transmit to parents and brothers and sisters...and grandparents. Young children are not mindful of personal hygiene or social distancing, so that is a bit of a problem of keeping them safe.
There is a rare condition that can complicate the infection but that is very rare.
we are still learning about how maintain day care centers and students in elementary school so watch the announcements from your public health department and the CDC.

Yes. Published data from China report infection with the SARS-CoV-2 in children of essentially all ages including toddlers.

Good day to You!
Any human can be infected by Coronavirus, irrespective of the age. Keep in your mind that transmission of the virus happens "by air": coughing, sneezing, and by CONTACT. Very strict personal HYGIENE IS CRUCIAL to keep the infection away! Therefore, all measures to keep away from being infected MUST BE APPLIED! Please ask your physician or nurse for more details how to protect you and your beloved from being infected.
Good luck and stay safe!
