Hypertrophic tonsils as a SARS-CoV-2 reservoir in children
“Hypertrophic tonsils as the SARS-CoV-2 reservoir in children: 23% of tonsil and adenoid tissue samples of children who had undergone adenotonsillectomy, were positive for the SARS-CoV-2 nucleoprotein”

Molecular mimicry in multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children
Molecular mimicry in multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children
“Multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children (MIS-C) is a severe, post-infectious sequela of SARS-CoV-2 infection1,2, yet the pathophysiological mechanism connecting the infection to the broad inflammatory syndrome remains unknown. Here we leveraged a large set of samples from patients with MIS-C to identify a distinct set of host proteins targeted by patient autoantibodies including a particular autoreactive epitope within SNX8, a protein involved in regulating an antiviral pathway associated with MIS-C”

"Positive immunostaining in adenotonsillar tissue samples suggest lymphoid tissue can be a reservoir of SARS-CoV-2 and may play an important role in community dissemination...unclear for how long the tissue can sustain SARS-CoV-2 in a persistent infection"
