Résumé
We describe the clinical course of 4 infants infected with severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2. All were admitted to our tertiary care neonatal intensive care unit during the Omicron variant wave in our region. All 4 infants, who were less than 3 months of age, including three born prematurely, presented with critical illness. However, their clinical presentation varied considerably. Of them, two infants presented with apnea, one with respiratory distress, and one with gastrointestinal manifestation. Our experience with these four infants provides evidence for a severe form of disease and varied clinical presentation in neonates and young infants speculated to be infected with Omicron variant.
