Several studies have shown that children are experiencing COVID Long Haulers like adults, but it is unclear how often and how severe the condition might be among children. Professionals need to know this information to understand whether school closures or vaccinations would help reduce cases of COVID Long Haulers.
The numbers of cases may be small, but the severity of COVID in children should also be taken into account when examining the disease. Sufferers can experience headaches, low energy and difficulty breathing. More research is needed to find an effective treatment for symptoms in both adults and children.
