Long covid in children & treating normal blood pressure
James Gallagher asks could people with normal blood pressure benefit from medication to lower it further? And what exactly is long Covid in children?
My blood pressure is perfectly normal, but could I benefit from medication to lower it even further? We discuss with Oxford University’s Prof Kazem Rahimi and our resident GP Margaret McCartney.
How do you diagnose a new disease that could have 200 symptoms? We explore long Covid in children with our reporter Carolyn Atkinson and Professor Sir Terence Stephenson from the UCL Great Ormond Street Institute for Child Health.
