The Immediate and Lasting Impact of COVID-19 on Children – Online
August 4, 2020 @ 12:00 pm - 1:00 pm
Event Navigation
COVID-19 has unique implications for child populations regarding physical health, mental development, and social well-being. Although evidence indicates that children are less susceptible to the more severe physical symptoms of COVID-19 that are reported in adults, emerging evidence points to new short- and long-term impacts that will affect children’s health long after the pandemic is adequately controlled. This webinar will address the specific impacts posed by COVID-19 to children in the short- and long-term and provide policy options that may support children’s physical and mental health.
