    Persistent post-Covid health symptoms are impacting young people in New Zealand


    The latest Otago University study reveals more than 20 percent of youth surveyed, aged three to 20, experience more headaches, coughs, colds and stomach bugs than before.

    Associate Professor, Julie Bennett says we need more evidence-based strategies.

    She says other studies have had similar results, with New Zealand sitting slightly higher than other countries.
