Acquired childhood aphasia as a consequence of COVID‐19 and its differential diagnosis from speech–language pathologist perspective: A case study

Abstract

It is essential to be more vigilant in understanding impact of COVID‐19 on children's speech and language skills. As studies in these lines are very sparse, it is imperative to profile these children and derive accurate diagnosis. Accurate diagnosis aids Speech‐Language Pathologists (SLPs) to render speech and Language therapy systematically.The ongoing COVID‐19 is a global pandemic. Though fatality has reduced, its devastating circumstances have continued to prevail. The current study highlights the profiling, assessment, and management of 2‐year‐old child, who showed regression following COVID‐19. The study unveils the relationship between COVID‐19, acquired childhood aphasia, and Japanese‐Encephalitis.
