"Most of what we know about Long COVID, we know from studies of adults. This is one of the largest and first studies to try to characterize the prolonged symptoms that are experienced by children and to try to understand how they may differ between different age groups."
"Among children ages 6 to 11, the researchers identified 10 symptoms strongly linked to Long COVID... Trouble with memory or focus, back or neck pain, stomach pain, headaches, phobias, refusal to go to school, itchy skin or rash, trouble sleeping, nausea or vomiting, lightheadedness or dizziness."
"In adolescents ages 12 to 17, eight key symptoms emerged: change or loss of smell or taste, body pain, and a range of cognitive and emotional challenges, indicating that their experience of Long COVID is distinct from that of younger children and adults."
