In Chattogram, from June to the first week of July,
100 percent of children infected with coronavirus have been detected of the Covid-19 Delta variant. The researchers
provided such information after sequencing the genomes of infected children.
This information was found in the genome sequence of
samples of 12 children who came and were admitted to Chattogram Maternal and
Child Hospital and Chattogram General Hospital. The study included children
from newborns to 16-year-old (school-going) infected with Covid-19.
The sequence data from the study were obtained from
the Global Initiative on Sharing All Influenza Data, an international database
of viruses published in Germany.
On Saturday (July 17) morning, the organization
published the report on their website.
