    February 6, 2021 // -- In a recent study, researchers at the University of Missouri School of Medicine found that children vaccinated against seasonal influenza are less likely to experience symptoms of COVID-19 infection.
    findings come from a retrospective study of more than 900 children diagnosed with COVID-19 in 2020.
    author Anjali Patwardhan, professor of child rheumatology and child health, said: "The growth of a virus is known to be inhibited by previous viral infections.
    phenomenon is called virus interference, and can occur even if the first virus invader is an inactivated virus, such as a flu vaccine.
    (Photo: www.pixabay.com) Patwardhan reviewed the records of 905 pediatric patients diagnosed with COVID-19 between February 2020 and August 2020 to determine the history of influenza vaccination for each patient.
    she found that CHILDREN-19-positive children who received the flu vaccine during the current flu season had lower risk of respiratory or severe illness.
    also found that children with COVID-19 who were vaccinated against pneumococcal disease were also less likely to develop symptomatic diseases.
    is critical to the study of pediatric populations, as children play an important role in affecting the spread of the virus," said Patrick Patrick, a professor of pediatrics.
    understanding the relationship and coexistence of other viruses with COVID-19, as well as the vaccination status of children, may help deploy the right strategy for optimal results.
    " Patwardhan said it was also important to explore the link between vaccination and COVID-19 symptoms in larger geographic multiracial studies.
    based on these findings, we assume that the higher incidence of COVID-19 in a small number of populations may also reflect their low vaccination rates, among other health problems," said Patwardhan, a researcher at the school.
