Manage episode 472422150 series 2971018
What happens when COVID-19 symptoms linger long after the initial infection—especially in children? In this episode, we sit down with Dr. Melissa Stockwell, a leading expert in pediatric infectious diseases, to explore the reality of long COVID in kids. We discuss how long COVID is defined, its most common symptoms, and how it differs from what we see in adults. Dr. Stockwell shares insights into who is most at risk, the challenges of diagnosing long COVID in children, and the best approaches for managing symptoms. We also dive into the role of vaccines in prevention and the latest research on potential treatments. If you’re a parent, clinician, or just looking to understand more about this complex condition, this is an episode you won’t want to miss.
