Omicron variant of SARS-CoV-2, an epidemiologic assessment of pediatric oncology patients in the Bronx.

We found that no patients in our cohort developed respiratory distress, bacteremia, or serious illness after COVID-19 infection during the Omicron surge. Future studies will aid in understanding the relationship between community-acquired infections and bacteremia, and this knowledge can then be applied to develop optimal infection prevention clinical care guidelines.
