Millions of kids and teens are living with long COVID. Their varied symptoms — from rashes and trouble remembering things to excruciating limb and stomach pain and weight loss — can have wide-ranging effects on their lives and on their families.
Long COVID is hard to track. Research estimates that anywhere from 4% to 25% of the 15.6 million American children and adolescents who have had a COVID-19 infection will develop some form of long COVID.
Youth Today is reporting on the impacts of long COVID on young people.
