Dozens of children in the UK and Europe, as well as some in the U.S., have come down with symptoms of hepatitis not currently explained by known causes. Theories for the outbreak include the resurgence of an existing but usually quieter germ, complications of covid-19, or even the arrival of a novel or mutated virus.
Hepatitis is most often caused by a group of five unrelated viruses (hepatitis A through E), but it’s actually a formal term for any kind of liver inflammation. Various infectious diseases, heavy alcohol use, toxins, and even certain medications can all cause hepatitis. Symptoms range from fever and fatigue to jaundice (yellowed skin and eyes), nausea, abdominal pain, and dark urine. In severe cases, it can lead to liver failure and death.
Since January this year, UK doctors have reported a concerning rise of severe, sometimes life-threatening hepatitis cases in children—above the normal baseline rate of incidence. At least 74 cases documented in the country seem to fit the bill, with children not testing positive for any of the known hepatitis viruses. In a case report by doctors from Scotland published Thursday, the authors noted that three children became so sick that they were evaluated for a possible liver transplant. At least six children in the UK have received a liver transplant, according to a recent summary by the World Health Organization.
This week, health officials in Spain reported three of their own cases, including one child who also needed a transplant....health officials in Alabama have reported at least nine hepatitis cases in children dating back to October 2021 that similarly elude a simple explanation. A public health alert issued by the Alabama Department of Public Health to doctors in February alluded to one possible case in another state but provided no further details.

Psaki: “Well, research shows that alcohol consumption among 13 year olds increased dramatically during the pandemic.”
this is interesting.
I have thalassemia minor which can cause iron issues. I have been thinking of donating plasma after a recent thread talking about how it can help with iron overload.
Another case of autoimmune hepatitis after SARS-CoV-2 vaccination – still casualty?
I have it as well. I was told my chronic anemia was a symptom. I didn’t think we could give blood products. I was on iron supplements for a while.
Hello COVID-19 vaccination shots.
I have never tried to give blood so I don’t know but that would make sense. Plasma might be different and supposedly plasma donation is better for getting rid of the iron.
My ferritin is always slightly high
Here is what I have been told for my version - which is Beta Thalassemia. Don’t take iron. Drs will prescribe it and I have to remind them I have thalassemia. I just live with the funky blood cells dying off.
Most Drs don’t have a clue. It’s just a word they have heard in Med School ;-)
I’ll give you a hint. It’s not because of a cold or flu.
China is exactly where our Deep State would want “Covid” launched.
Maybe this is why they let a know-nothing-Bozo like Biden be ‘in charge’...
They’re going to need a fall guy, and he is stupid enough to be one.
He may be the Oswald to their shooting the country from the grassy knoll,
