airiefairieNYC mayor Bill DeBlasio is worried about the spread of a mysterious inflammation among children. There are suspicions that it is related to Covid-19, which is said to affect children much less than adults.
40+ new cases of this new sindrom have been reported in New York City. The inflammation goes as a violent reaction of the immune system, resulting in heavy damages on a number of vital organs.
NY governor Cuomo corroborates this data, reporting of at least 90 cases in NY state. He reports that at least 5 children have probably died in direct result of this new disease, one of them just 5 years old. All had pre-existing conditions.
The symptoms resemble those of the Kawasaki disease, an artery inflammation that goes with high fever, and often skin inflammation. The worst symptom is an infectious toxic shock.
Some of the afflicted children have been tested for Covid-19, 47% turned out infected, and 81% had antibodies. Similar results have come from the UK, France, Italy, Spain, Switzerland, Germany, and other European countries.
