Data on SARS-CoV-2 in children are sparse and sometimes contradictory. In Italy the closing of the school at the end of February 2020 up to June probably contributed to slow the epidemic, but was also associated with an increased risk of mental and physical disruption in children and adolescents. In the Emilia-Romagna Region summer camps were opened starting from the first week of June, even in absence of clear and univocal guidelines. Opening summer camps gave the opportunity to test the health and the educational systems in general and, in particular, the effectiveness of the implemented preventive measures and the test, treat and track system, therefore to increase the knowledge on Covid-19 in Paediatrics. The paper describes the building of a virtual space for collaboration with family paediatricians, community paediatricians, public health departments, preschool departments and the monitoring of the health conditions in children attending summer camps. This model can help guide health care decision with the reopening of schools. |
