But children don’t get as sick….
Michigan doctor is seeing these 3 diseases show up in kids with COVID-19
Excerpt:
"Where I work, we have seen children develop serious and life-threatening illness due to Covid in three ways," said Dr. Lauren Yagiela. "First, we have seen children develop serious and life-threatening
Covid pneumonia. We have also had children develop
myocarditis or heart inflammation that causes serious heart dysfunction due to a Covid infection."
"Additionally, we've had numerous
children develop a condition called multisystem inflammatory syndrome. This syndrome can occur in children around four weeks after their initial Covid infection.," she added.
She also mentioned kids with other health problems like diabetes and asthma saw their conditions worsen following their Covid infection.
Yagiela said many needed life-saving treatment options or they wouldn't have survived the infection.
