    Thank you for the article!

    "The low risk posed by acute disease means that one of the key benefits of COVID vaccination of children and adolescents might be to protect them from long COVID," he said. "An accurate determination of the risk of long COVID in this age group is therefore crucial in the debate about the risks and benefits of vaccination."

    It is always interesting to see this dichotomy, that exposes a certain, strongly biased style of thinking. It must be proven that long COVID is harmful to children, so that we can make a policy decision to vaccinate children. At the same time, we do not know at all whether the vaccine can even prevent long COVID in the first place. This would be the far more important question, don't you think?
