#SarsCoV2 Er zijn ons geen nieuwe agressieve varianten bekend, al zijn er wel berichten dat variant Cicada (BA.3.2), die in NL vanaf november op beperkte schaal rondging, nu ook elders in de wereld in opmars is. Daarbij lijkt deze variant vooral (zeer) jonge kinderen te treffen.

#LongCovidKids The short answer is yes—children who got COVID-19 again were more likely to experience long-term issues. Long COVID can include a variety of symptoms that linger or appear after the initial illness, often affecting several body systems. https://johnsnowproject.org/primers/reducing-the-risk-of-long-covid-in-kids-why-reinfection-matters-and-what-we-can-do/

Anybody got a zine or other handout for kids about how to wear a mask?

My kiddo has been giving colourful kn95s to other interested kids... but those kids often have no info on how to wear them properly, how to handle them safely, why bother, etc. I have printables for grown-ups but it would be rad to have something cute and easy to read for the under 10 crowd.

Children face twice the risk of long COVID after reinfection, with impacts across heart, brain, and other systems.

This holds true regardless of age or illness severity, underscoring the need for prevention and long-term pediatric care.
