Pandemic 'blighted" future for Covid kids

CHILDREN saw their childhood "blighted" by the pandemic, the second day of the Scottish Covid Inquiry has heard.

Long Covid Kids Scotland was among the organisations who gave opening statements before chairman Lord Brailsford yesterday.

Its KC, Andrew Webster, told the panel of the hardships faced by children with long Covid symptoms that last after recovering from the disease.

He said: "The children of Scotland should be able to thrive and look forward to a positive future.

"Long Covid has blighted that prospect for too many. For too many, long Covid presents a seemingly insurmountable obstacle to an engaged, fulfilling and productive life."
