Among them, 290,145 children and 223,667 adolescents had SARS-CoV-2–positive tests or confirmed COVID-19 diagnoses. Kaplan–Meier survival analysis was used to evaluate the probability of developing new mental disorders (any codes in <em>International Classification of Diseases, Tenth Revision, Clinical Modification</em> (<em>ICD-10-CM</em>) F01-F99 category and suicidal behaviors) within 2 years post infection, compared to the propensity score–matched youth who were never infected.</div></div><div><h3>Results</h3><div>Within 2 years post SARS-CoV-2 infection, children had a probability of 0.15 in acquiring new psychiatric diagnoses, compared to 0.026 for matched non-infected children; adolescents had a 0.19 probability against 0.05 for their non-infected counterparts. The hazard ratio (HR) was 6.0 (95% CI = 5.8-6.3) for children and 4.2 for adolescents (95% CI = 4.1-4.4), with children vs adolescents HR of 1.4 (95% CI = 1.36-1.51). Elevated HRs were observed for almost all subcategories of mental disorders and suicidal behaviors, with variations based on sex, severity of SARS-CoV-2 infection, and viral variants.
