    Consequences beyond acute SARS-CoV-2 infection in children

    Sharon H. Saydah, Angela P. Campbell, Adrienne G. Randolph

    Abstract
    Although most children are spared from developing complications from SARS-CoV-2 infection, some may suffer consequences including Long Covid and multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children (MIS-C). Although the occurrence of these conditions has decreased over time, they can still occur, and recognition of symptoms and prompt diagnosis is imperative for early intervention.

    Worth mentioning that this, and seven other articles posted today, are from a special issue of Science Translational Medicine dedicated to long COVID (one article is about post-Lyme symptoms).

    From the article:
    That may be useful for people advocating for children to get access to vaccinations. (although I think the protection provided by vaccination is over-stated, as is the protection provided by not being obese).

    Countries that don't want to vaccinate children use facts such as "70-90% of children have already been infected" as reasons for not providing the vaccine to children in general. There is no need as most have immunity already. While simoultaneously arguing for recent infection not being a reason to not take the vaccine as adults.

    No thinking allowed :thumbup:

    “it’s only like flu”. Yet annual Flu vaccination isn’t challenged and they even developed the nasal one for kids
