Weekly SARS-CoV-2 Sentinel Surveillance in Primary Schools Kindergartens and Nurseries Germany June‒November 2020

摘要

We investigated severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 infections in primary schools, kindergartens, and nurseries in Germany. Of 3,169 oropharyngeal swab specimens, only 2 were positive by real-time reverse transcription PCR. Asymptomatic children attending these institutions do not appear to be driving the pandemic when appropriate infection control measures are used.
