In the report “Trends in COVID-19 Cases, Emergency Department Visits, and Hospital Admissions Among Children and Adolescents Aged 0–17 years — United States, August 2020–August 2021,” on page 1252, in the Table, the second footnote should have read, “† ED visit data are from the National Syndromic Surveillance Program (NSSP). Data are limited to ED visits with a discharge diagnosis. Data from Hawaii and Ohio are not included. Fewer than 50% of facilities in California, Iowa, Minnesota, and Oklahoma report to NSSP. In HHS Region 7, fewer than 50% of all ED visits have a discharge diagnosis.” On page 1253, the title for Figure 2 should have read, “Number of COVID-19 hospitalizations and percentage of COVID-19 hospitalizations resulting in intensive care unit admission or invasive mechanical ventilation among persons aged 0–17 years, by age group — United States, August 1, 2020–August 21, 2021.”
