Another update as more hospitals around the country report back on cases of the “mystery” illness linked to Covid-19 and children. It now has a name: Pediatric Multisymptom Inflammatory Syndrome. Three NY children have died from it. Parents who have felt their kids were safe from Covid need to be aware of it and watch for the symptoms. From Yahoo News:
“Hospitals have identified at least 73 cases of the newly-identified condition, called pediatric multisymptom inflammatory syndrome, among toddlers and elementary-school-age children in New York state.
Nationwide, nearly 100 children have been diagnosed with the condition. At least seven states besides New York — California, Delaware, Louisiana, Massachusetts, New Jersey, Pennsylvania and Washington — as well as Washington, D.C., have reported cases.”
Death toll grows to 3 for children in New York with COVID-19-related syndrome
