Organs can become inflamed. Kanter says in older teenagers it can cause heart failure.

They can say this with certainty, but they have no idea if HCQ works or not...

I wonder if they ever heard that correlation is not causation.
This occurs weeks after recovery. Gee, could it be that there is something else at work here?

Multisystem Inflammatory Syndrome in Children or MIS-C.

Sounds like some kind of autoimmune disease. Wonder if these children recently received vaccinations? For that matter, wonder how many seniors who succumbed to covid due to cytokine storm received an annual flu vaccine, more particularly the high-dose version given only to those above 65 years of age?

Keep the kids safe! ABOLISH SCHOOL! They don’t teach them much anyway.

This condition is associated with things other than covid as well. It is generally treatable when recognized in time and unfortunately results in a few deaths per year. I’m. it sure this year is any different

A Syndrome? Four kids, a SYNDROME?

Pure B.S.

[dgbrown]

Sounds anecdotal to me.

[tiki]

Hmmm, no underlying health problems? It must have been substandard care.

[CharlesWayneCT]

“deaths rising”.

Because, sadly, we don’t ever bring people BACK from the dead, so we never seem to be able to DROP the number of deaths.

Also, MISC kills a couple hundred kids a year. Nobody cared. Now we care, because some of them test positive for COVID. Usually, it’s the flu that kills them.

More fear mongering.

Unfortunately this occurs in children and is rare. It’s known as Kawasaki disease.

They’re saying this Covid related syndrome is a little different in that slightly older kids are presenting with Kawasaki symptoms.

The key being this is, unfortunately, not a new syndrome unknown before or only unique to Covid.

And while an estimated 1,200 children died in the 2012-2013 flu season[5] only 75 children have died due to COVID-19 (reported July 22)[6]and only 2 percent of domestic COVID-19 cases have occurred in children under 18, only 20 children under age five in the U.S. have died because of it, while the vast majority of children with severe COVID tend to have other risk factors.[7]

More, by the grace of God.
