Varanasi: Due to the Coronavirus pandemic, children imprisoned at home for two years, started going to school. After the third wave of corona ended, it was only a few days after the schools were reopened. Once again concern has risen after cases of Covid-19 in students.

It is being told that in many schools of Delhi-NCR, corona symptoms have been found in students and teachers. Due to which the schools have been closed once again and online classes resumed. This news has created worry among the children and families.

Of course, the reduction in new cases of corona and the reopening of schools is a good sign, but family members should keep in mind that the war against the corona epidemic is not over yet. The fourth wave has knocked doors in many countries of Asia and Europe and cases are increasing rapidly. In such a situation, those who are sending their children back to school, should keep some symptoms in mind. If some symptoms similar to corona are seen in the children, then forget to send your child to school.

Symptoms of corona in children:

Symptoms may be seen in some children due to corona, while some children maybe asymptomatic. If we talk about the common symptoms of corona in children, then symptoms like cough and fever can be seen in them. You should keep an eye on these symptoms-

  • Fever
  • Persistent cough
  • Chest pain
  • Loss of smell and taste
  • Sore throat
  • Stomach and intestinal problems
  • Muscle pain
  • Severe headache

Take care of cough in children:

A study published in the journal Paediatrics found more problems with cough in infants and young children. Croup is an infection of the upper airways, which obstructs breathing and causes a barking cough. In this, there is swelling around the voice box. That's why parents should pay attention to this symptom in children.

Severe symptoms of corona in children:

In severe cases, children may show symptoms of a multisystem inflammatory syndrome (MIS-C). This condition can cause inflammation of certain organs and tissues, including the heart, lungs, blood vessels, kidneys, digestive tract, brain, skin or eyes. Its symptoms include-

How to protect children from Covid-19?

Avoid sending your child to school when he is ill. Even if their disease is not Covid-19. Remember that a flu, a common cold, and respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) can be as challenging for a child as COVID.

Keep in mind that the cases of corona have reduced but the danger is not averted. You should help the children to maintain the habit of following the rules related to corona. Get the child who is eligible for the vaccine vaccinated. Take special care of masks, social distance, cleanliness.
