A new survey found that over 900,000 children and nearly 18 million adults have struggled with long COVID-19.
The National Center for Health Statistics says the conditions affected nearly 7% of adults and 1.3% of kids.
However, the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services estimates it higher – 23 million Americans.  Differences can be attributed to how the various surveys were conducted.
