Popis: Four seasonal coronaviruses, including HCoV-NL63 and HCoV-229E, HCoV-OC43 and HCoV-HKU1 cause approximately 15–30% of common colds in adults. However, the frequency and timing of early infection with four seasonal coronaviruses in the infant are still not well studied. Here, we evaluated the serological response to four seasonal coronaviruses in 1886 children under 18-year-old to construct the viral infection rates. The antibody levels were also determined from the plasma samples of 485 pairs postpartum women and their newborn babies. This passive immunity waned at one year after birth and the resurgence of the IgGs were found thereafter with the increase of the age. Taken together, our results show the age-related seroprevalence trajectories of seasonal coronaviruses in children and provide useful information for deciding vaccine strategy for coronaviruses in the future.
