Abstract

Our study aimed to assess the severity of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 infection in hospitalized infants under 40 days old, across 21 Belgian hospitals between 2020 and 2022. Of the 365 infants studied, 14.2% needed respiratory support. The median hospital stay was 3 days (interquartile range, 2-4), and there were no deaths. Infection severity was similar during the Omicron and Alpha/Delta periods.
