Accurately determining the risk of long COVID is challenging, especially in children and adolescents. Distinguishing symptoms related to long-term SARS-CoV-2 infection from pandemic-related symptoms is difficult. More robust data is needed to inform policy decisions.
Accurately determining the risk of long COVID is challenging. Existing studies in children and adolescents have considerable limitations and distinguishing long-term SARS-CoV-2 infection-associated symptoms from pandemic-related symptoms is difficult. Over half of individuals in this age group, irrespective of COVID-19, report physical and psychologic symptoms, highlighting the impact of the pandemic. More robust data is needed to inform policy decisions.
