Be a good role model—if you wash your hands often, they’re more likely to do the same.
Make handwashing a family activity.

Recent literature reveals a multisystem inflammatory syndrome linked to COVID-19 infections in children. While most children may be asymptomatic or only have mild COVID-19 symptoms, many children may experience persistent symptoms months after initial recovery known as post-COVID syndrome or “Long COVID.” Such patients are also described as “long-haulers.” The range of long-term symptoms in children are not well documented, but may mirror those seen in adults, including:
fatigue
shortness of breath
joint pain
chest pain
cough
loss of taste and/or smell
