them are children, and some of them have even had complications.

The Pediatric doctor, Xhemal Peposhi, says that the first signs in children are sore throat, temperature, respiratory problems and diarrhea.

“Most of the cases have come with breathing problems, most of which need examinations at the radiology”, Peposhi declared.

Doctors say that some of the children have had complications, hence the parents should check them regularly.
