The US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said on Friday it's investigating 109 cases of severe and unexplained hepatitis in children in 25 states and territories that may be linked to a worldwide outbreak. Among them, 14% needed transplants and five children have died.
Nearly all the children -- more than 90% -- needed to be hospitalized.

It's not yet clear what's driving these cases in young children. Butler said some of the common causes of viral hepatitis have been considered, but were not found in any of the cases. Adenovirus has been detected in more than 50% of cases, although its role isn't clear.
Pediatric gastroenterologist Dr. Heli Bhatt from the University of Minnesota Medical Center has treated two children who are part of the CDC's investigation. One, a 2-year-old from South Dakota, had a liver transplant Friday morning.
Bhatt says liver failure in kids is "super rare." And even before scientists started tracking this outbreak, half of cases were never explained.
Doctors who have treated these children say their cases stood out.
"Even during the first case, I thought it was weird," says Dr. Markus Buchfellner, a pediatric infectious disease specialist at the University of Alabama at Birmingham, where they first started seeing cases in October.

Hmmmm...
What has changed over the past two years that we could put our finger on?
Lock downs..you have children who were not able to go out and get immunity from common germs such as colds, now their bodies dont know how to react to even the most common everyday germ
Whatever could it be?
We may never know.
autoimmune hepatitis ??
I’ll take “what is caused by illegal immigration?” for $5000, Alex
It's speculation like this that gives vaxxxxxxines a bad name. Biden's MIINSTRY OF TRUTH will be all over statements like this, setting the public straight on exactly what to think.
Now go get all the children vaxxxxxed. It's necessary for the good of all mankind. And if it's shown that only the vaxxxxxed children get this "rare" hepatitis, then we will have to sarcrifice a few for the good of many. It's how we need to live, trust the science, trust our government officials. /sarc
More blood on Fauxi’s Fingers.
“But it’s very odd to see a child who’s healthy come in with the amount of liver injury that these kids had,” Dr. Markus Buchfellner, a pediatric infectious disease specialist at the University of Alabama at Birmingham said.”
Magnatron wrote: “What has changed over the past two years that we could put our finger on?”
From Newsmax: “Butler said none of the Alabama children were vaccinated against COVID-19. That has been ruled out as a possible cause, “and we hope this information helps clarify some of the speculation circulating online.””

This is like sending the foxes to investigate who killed all the hens in the hen-house.
CDC is baffled.
Based on their incompetence, we will never be told.
Good to know the CDC is on it to control the narrative.
And/or scam vax clinics refilling used vax shots and yet charging Uncle Sam. Hepatitis is a common shared dirty needle thing.
My guess is reckless parents who allowed their children to be part of a medical experiment.
Liver injury? Hmm, isn’t the liver involved in maintaining blood chemistry, cleaning blood? It’s almost like something got into their blood that the liver couldn’t handle... ;-/
Alex: That is incorrect. We’re looking for “What is the China Virus Vaccine?”
Hepatitis outbreak in children misleadingly linked to Covid-19 vaccination
That’s what I saw on some vaccine documents. They know what’s causing it.
Because late term abortion is not late enough for democrats.
Thanks - that is helpful information.
One of the reasons why I don’t mind being part of the control group.
The medical profession lied about everything else about COVID.
So why should we believe them (or you) now?
Except, you know, now Pfizer is admitting people should take Ivermectin and Hydroxychloroquine.
