Symptoms of long Covid experienced by children and young people change over time and while some of the children's original symptoms declined, new symptoms were reported, the world's largest study on long Covid in children published in Lancet journal has revealed.

This was also the case when researchers looked at scales measuring poor quality of life, experiencing emotional and behavioural difficulties, poor wellbeing and fatigue.

"Our research goes one step further than existing studies and indicates that researchers need to track individual trajectories using repeated measurement on the same children and young people over time," said Snehal Pinto Pereira from University College London in the study published in The Lancet Regional Health.
