Covid-19 kills second baby in Qatar

Covid-19 has claimed millions of lives across the globe. Amid the recent increase in the number of cases, the world has been reminded of how deadly this virus is. It is to be remembered at all times that no one is safe from the outbreak, not even infants. Another child’s life has been lost due to Covid-19 in Qatar, as a proof.

A three-year-old baby’s death has been reported from Covid-19 in Qatar. This is not the first infant death in the country. It is the second time that a baby lost its life to due to Covid-19.

The Ministry of Public Health Statement of Qatar released a statement regarding the baby’s death. It has been clearly stated that the baby did not have any other known medical history or hereditary conditions. The authorities urged all the people to remember that people of all ages are at risk of being infected by Covid-19.

Although Covid is often moderate in children, it has been linked to a number of occasional newborn deaths worldwide. However, Qatar’s health officials have reported a greater number of children being infected. The reason behind this has not been stated as Omicron’s severity. Instead, Omicron is more contagious than severe.

The Omicron variant, which is exceedingly infectious and has the ability to avoid vaccinations, has also caused an increase in hospitalisation in young children, according to CDC statistics and a recent research published in the British Medical Journal.

According to Unicef data, just 0.4 percent of the 3.5 million global deaths caused by the coronavirus occurred in individuals under the age of 20. Children aged 9 and under accounted for less than half of the fatalities.

The spike might be explained in part by an increase in Omicron cases. It affects people of all ages, as well as the spread of other respiratory diseases.
