What is involved?

This study takes place in 1-3 parts and can include one visit, or up to 4 years of follow up. We are asking whether you and your child are interested in Part 1 and/or 2 of the study. We may also ask your child to be in Part 3 of this study as well.

Part 1: You will be asked to answer surveys about your child's health, COVID-19, the COVID-19 vaccine, and to have blood and saliva (spit) collected.

In Part 2, your child will be asked to complete tests such as a physical exam, a learning test, joint flexibility test, heart test, a lung test, and have blood collected.

Part 3: Will include about 2 visits and these visits will be completed at our study site at Nemours Children's Hospital, Delaware. In Part 3 of this study, your child will be asked to complete tests such as a heart exam, an MRI, a test on how their brain learns, and a lung test.
