In particular, attention has turned to people with long-haul COVID-19, a syndrome that has appeared in people who have lingering symptoms after an acute case of COVID-19.

While most people with severe COVID-19 were adults, experts are learning how seemingly mild cases of COVID-19 have turned into debilitating cases of long-haul COVID-19.

Recent studies have found that as many as 1 in 4 people who had COVID-19 end up with long-haul COVID-19.

Long-haul COVID-19, often referred to as “long COVID,” can involve a wide variety of symptoms, some of which include:.

Although much of the attention around long-haul COVID-19 has focused on adults, early research shows that it can also affect children and teenagers.

In these cases, many children have seemingly mild cases that then lead to long-haul COVID-19, which can be debilitating.

“I thought she was better, but in August, her symptoms came back with new shortness of breath,” said Wallace.

Her symptoms are consistent with long-haul COVID-19, in which symptoms last for weeks or months after someone first contracts the virus that causes COVID-19.

“I feel like in the past week, she’s better than she was the week before,” said Wallace.

One of the challenges in diagnosing long-haul COVID-19 is that many people who have contracted the virus never got tested for it.

More than a week after Molly got sick, Wallace also developed symptoms of COVID-19.

Healthcare professionals have had to learn on the go, which has posed challenges to them and the people they treat, including Molly and Wallace.

“We started noticing children who have had lingering symptoms from COVID, and there wasn’t a lot of data on it or resources to help some of these kids,” said Dr.

Before Blatt gives a child a diagnosis of long-haul COVID-19, he checks for other potential causes of their symptoms.

Long-haul COVID-19 causes general symptoms, which means they are similar to those of other conditions.

To help children and families cope with long-haul COVID-19, Blatt said that one of the most important things that a healthcare professional can provide is emotional support and reassurance.

“Almost everyone we’ve had so far with long COVID gets better with time,” said Blatt.

“It’s scary and frustrating to have lingering symptoms, but the reassurance that they will get better helps with a lot of the anxiety.”.

Wallace would like to see people take the risks of COVID-19 in children more seriously, including the risk for long-haul COVID-19.
