Living with Long COVID means your body stops playing by the rules you’ve known your whole life. Weakness, instability, and sudden loss of strength aren’t “just fatigue” or something you can push through, they’re the result of real, measurable damage happening at a physiological level.

For many patients, even basic tasks can trigger muscle failure, trembling, or collapse — and pushing through often makes things worse, not better.

A claim is circulating on social media: COVID causes brain damage in kids.

COVID can injure the brain and change how it works, including in children. That part is real. But “brain damage” as shorthand doesn’t capture what families are actually living with, and it doesn’t look the same for every kid.

Some children have trouble with focus, memory, schoolwork, or processing after COVID. Others show changes on brain scans without obvious day-to-day challenges. And some kids struggle deeply even when their MRI looks “normal.” When we default to “brain damage” as a shorthand, we risk missing children who need support.

Labels can shape how teachers, peers, and even family members see a child, often in ways that limit expectations, reduce opportunities, and cause lasting harm to a child’s sense of self. A child who is already navigating real challenges should not also have to carry a label that defines them by what is wrong rather than what they need.

What actually matters for these kids: What does this child need to learn, rest, and participate? What accommodations will help them stay in school and in community life? What can we do to reduce harm and prevent more kids from reaching this point?

COVID causes real brain and nervous system changes. Kids who are struggling after infection deserve recognition, care, and accommodations, whether or not a scan can prove it. How we talk about what they are experiencing matters.

💓 Mitt hjerte banker for... at Long COVID-pasienter får rutinemessig screening for POTS.

Mange symptomer ved long covid antas å være knyttet til dysautonomi, og det er svært vanlig å utvikle POTS i etterkant av en covid-19-infeksjon som en del av long covid.

Men få personer får utredet dette tidlig nok, eller i det hele tatt.

En enkel 10-minutters ståtest hos fastlegen kan avdekke POTS. Pulsmåling før og etter reising. Det tar mindre tid enn å vente på blodprøvesvar. Men det fordrer at fastlegen har kunnskap og kompetanse om POTS.

Mange Long COVID pasienter får beskjed om at "dette går over av seg selv" eller "du må bevege deg mer."

Vi trenger systematisk utredning av skader eller dysfunksjoner i det autonome nervesystemet etter Covid-19 infeksjon 💛
