Annex. This document is an update of a guidance published on 12 July 2021, after the review of new scientific evidence on transmission of SARS-CoV-2 variants of concern (VOC).

Les infections au SRAS-CoV-2 chez les enfants et les adolescents provoquent une maladie moins grave et moins de décès que chez les adultes. Bien qu'une évolution moins grave de l'infection soit un résultat positif, on s'inquiète du fait que des symptômes légers aient pu conduire à moins de tests, ce qui a entraîné un nombre moins important de cas identifiés de COVID-19 chez les enfants. Si les enfants présentant des symptômes légers ou inexistants transmettent la maladie, ils peuvent agir comme des vecteurs de transmission au sein de leur communauté. Il est essentiel de comprendre les symptômes, l'infectivité et les modes de transmission du SRAS-CoV-2 chez les enfants et les adolescents pour développer, adapter et améliorer les mesures de contrôle du COVID-19 à tous les âges. Ce document est un résumé des connaissances actuelles concernant l'acquisition et la transmission de l'infection par le SRAS-CoV-2 et les symptômes de la maladie COVID-19 chez les enfants et les adolescents. Il vise à éclairer les décisions, en fonction des contextes locaux, sur la meilleure façon de maintenir ouvertes les écoles, les jardins d'enfants et les crèches et sur les conseils à appliquer en matière de mixité intergénérationnelle

SARS-CoV-2 infections among children and adolescents cause less severe illness and fewer deaths compared to adults. While a less severe course of infection is a positive outcome, there are concerns that mild symptoms may have led to less testing, resulting in fewer identified cases of COVID-19 in children. If children with mild or no symptoms transmit the disease, they may act as drivers of transmission within their communities. Understanding symptoms, infectivity and patterns of SARS-CoV-2 transmission in children and adolescents is essential for developing, adapting and improving control measures for COVID-19 across all ages. This is a summary of the current knowledge around SARS-CoV-2 infection acquisition and transmission and COVID-19 disease symptoms in children and adolescents. It aims to inform decisions, based on local contexts, on how to best keep schools, kindergarten and day-care facilities open and what advice to apply to intergenerational mixing

This document aims to support those working in primary care to strengthen IPC, informed by existing WHO IPC guidance and implementation resources. Many of the existing WHO IPC guidance and implementation resources initially developed for acute health care facilities have a potential utility for IPC in primary care. However, navigating these resources to locate relevant content for IPC in primary care can be challenging as some documents can span over 100 pages. This document extracts relevant content, bringing together existing WHO IPC standards, indicators and implementation approaches that are focused on, or directly relevant to IPC in primary care. It should also be used to identify resources suitable for use in primary care that can be embedded within relevant IPC or other health programmes
