‘Children recover early, there is no long covid’

New Delhi: The old symptoms of Covid-19 rare in children, a new study published in the Lancet Child and Adolescent Health Journal has confirmed.
Children usually get better after six days of infection and the amount experiencing symptoms outside four weeks low, only about 4%.
Studies, based on data reported through smartphone applications by parents and caregivers, provide the first detailed description of Covid in SIMTOMATIC and convincing school-age children that long-term symptoms are rare.
In contrast, several studies of Covid patients in India and abroad have determined that adults continue to suffer from prolonged diseases for months in a condition called Covid.
Responding to new findings, Dr.
Anupam Sibal, a senior pediatric gastroenterology expert at the Apollo Hospital, said, “Even in India, in the wave of the first and second infections, most children with Covid do not show symptoms.
They are diagnosed just because some family members have been tested positively and They were tested too.
“He added that some children whose symptoms suffered mild fever, coughing and losing sense of smell.
“Only about 1% of children tested positively for Covid need hospitalization because of multi-systemic inflammation,” said Sibal.
In a new Lancet study, researchers used data collected through the Application of the Zoe Covid study smartphone related to 250,000 children aged five-17 years in the UK.
Symptoms are reported through the application by their parents or caregivers, rather than rated directly to children.
The team did not collect data about the attendance of the school, a statement from Lancet said.
Most children recover within four weeks, with minorities that experience symptoms after a month (4.4%, 77 of 1,734).
Usually, they only have two symptoms left after four weeks.
The most common symptoms experienced by children with long diseases are fatigue, with 84% (65 of 77) reporting fatigue at certain points in their disease as persistent symptoms.
Headaches and loss of sense of smell are also common, every symptom is experienced by 77.9% of children at several stages of their disease.
However, headaches are more common at the beginning of the disease while losing the sense of income tends to occur later and last longer.
Of the 1,379 children who develop symptoms of at least two months before the end of the study period (on or before December 29, 2020), less than 2% experienced symptoms of more than eight weeks (1.8%, 25 of 1,379).
Greater children usually pain longer than children of elementary school (duration of seven days of disease for those aged 12-17 years against five for those who are 5-11 years), the researchers found.
Professor Emma Duncan from King’s College, London, Tin and senior research writer, said, “Convincing that the number of children who experienced covid symptoms is long-lasting low.
However, a small amount of experiencing a long disease with Covid, and our study validates children’s experience This child and their family.
