What role do children play in household transmission of COVID-19?

A new study published in the International Journal of Infectious Diseases reviews the literature systematically. It performs a meta-analysis to assess the prevalence of pediatric COVID-19 in clusters of families, estimate the household secondary attack rate of children, and compare the transmissibility of SARS-CoV-2 in different age groups.
