Brief description of study

Purpose of this study is to understand why some people who got COVID-19 are still sick many months after being infected, and how this affects the body. This is sometimes called “Long COVID” or “PASC”, which stands for post-acute sequelae of SARS-CoV-2 infection. Children who have and have not had COVID-19 will be part of the study. For some parts of the study, a parent or caregiver, is also being invited to take part in this study. We will only be recruiting offspring of mothers with and without SARS-CoV-2 Infection during pregnancy.
