CME Credits: 1.00

Released: 2021-05-17

The effect of pediatric transmission of SARS-CoV-2 on the spread of COVID-19 remains a concern in creating policies for school reopening., Although children have a lower prevalence of developing overt COVID-19 symptoms than adults, asymptomatic transmission may contribute to the spread of COVID-19. Cloth face coverings are considered a key strategy in reducing the spread of SARS-CoV-2. However, policy makers and parents are concerned about students’ ability to mask effectively. We report the outcome of using positive behavior supports to promote masking in verbal school-aged children with autism spectrum disorders (ASD) and/or attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) attending a summer day treatment program.
