NIH-Funded Study by NYU Langone Reveals Long COVID Symptoms in Children Differ from Adults
Aug 21, 2024, 05:15 PM
A large-scale study funded by the National Institutes of Health and conducted by NYU Langone has identified distinct patterns of long COVID symptoms in children and teenagers, highlighting differences compared to adults. The research, published in JAMA, reveals that common symptoms in school-aged children include headaches and sleepiness. The study underscores the multisystemic nature of long COVID in pediatric populations, with symptoms varying significantly across different age groups. It is noted that as many as 10-20% of children experience symptoms three months after testing positive for COVID-19. The findings emphasize the need for further research to understand these age-specific symptoms and to develop effective treatment protocols.
