Plenty of questions remain about how children are affected by coronavirus, what symptoms they show and how they transmit it.

On the show today:

* Will the 14-day overseas quarantine work?
* Should I cancel my small party or wedding?
And Dr Norman Swan has some new research (with some caveats) about how kids may be affected by the virus.
