Abstract

Among 30,286 pediatric inpatient and outpatient encounters with laboratory-confirmed COVID-19 seen at one of 40 US healthcare organizations, 1586 (5.2%) were inpatient. Encounter types varied by age and sex; the proportion of Black/African American inpatients was significantly higher than outpatients, and Hispanic/Latinx children made up nearly one-fourth of patients.
