Asthma, recurrent wheezing, chronic neurological, cardiac and pulmonary diseases significantly increased the risk of severe outcomes such as death, mechanical ventilation and intensive care unit admission. The incremental risk with additional comorbidities underscores the importance of targeted vaccination strategies for vulnerable children and young people populations. date: 2025-01-09 date_type: published publisher: Ovid Technologies (Wolters Kluwer Health) official_url: https://doi.org/10.1097/inf.0000000000004684 full_text_type: other language: eng verified: verified_manual elements_id: 2358041 doi: 10.1097/INF.0000000000004684 medium: Print-Electronic pii: 00006454-990000000-01162 lyricists_name: Le Prevost, Marthe lyricists_name: Jackson, Charlotte lyricists_id: MSELE28 lyricists_id: CJACK20 actors_name: Le Prevost, Marthe actors_id: MSELE28 actors_role: owner full_text_status: restricted publication: Pediatric Infectious Disease Journal event_location: United States issn: 0891-3668 citation: Gastesi, I; Domínguez-Rodríguez, S; Le Prevost, M; Ramírez, A; Giaquinto, C; Mesa, ML; Ballesteros, A; ...
