COVID-19 infection affects people of any age or gender. It was found that children up to 6 months of age have a major risk of developing a severe form of the infection. Contemporary diagnostic imaging methods of high sensitivity, such as lung CT, allow to establish the degree of lung damage, the volume and the sequelae arising from enduring the COVID-19 infection. The long-term consequences of the COVID-19 infection are still being researched. Pneumonia in the infection of COVID-19 can lead to the long-term development pulmonary fibrosis, atelectasis, bronchiectasis.
