Analysis of symptomatic children finds fewer than one in 20 experienced symptoms beyond four weeks
Fewer than one in 20 Covid-positive children who experience symptoms continue to be symptomatic beyond four weeks, a new study has found.
The analysis was based on data collected between September 2020 and February 2021, coinciding with the reopening of schools in the autumn and the peak of the winter wave of the virus in the UK. It included data on 1,734 children from five to 17 years old.
