“Long COVID is common, affecting up to 10% to 20% of children with a history of COVID-19. With almost 6 million US children potentially affected, this is higher than the number of children with asthma, the most common chronic health problem in children.”

Is my math wrong? They show very low absolute risk: 0.09, 0.18%. What am I missing?

RECOVER has previously stated: "incidence of PASC in children... ranging from 4% to 62% across existing large studies, w more studies reporting estimates closer to 10% to 20%"

I'm curious about the low absolute risk they found: 0.09%, 0.18%

In the US, when 1 in 60 are infected, our CDC absurdly calls it 'low'

Dr. Topol, the editorial irresponsibly dismissed masks & air cleaning, which added nothing to their aim.
Of course it's urgent to find treatments for LC, but it was absurd for them to reject reducing transmission. Plenty of evidence supports air cleaning and mask use.
