Integration of systematic prevention measures for neonatal 2019-nCoV

Abstract:

Coronavirus disease 2019（COVID-19） is an acute respiratory infectious disease caused by 2019 novel coronavirus（2019-nCoV） and humankinds in all age groups are susceptible to it. Neonates，due to immaturity of immune function and potential mother-fetal vertical transmission，should be paid more attention. To prevent and control 2019-nCoV infection among neonates，experts have put forward many recommendations and strategies. In this paper，we summarized a series of these recommendations and strategies，es－pecially related with the diagnosis of infection，the isolation and protection of suspected and infected neonates and the treatment.
