Hepatitis spike among kids linked to COVID lockdowns: UK docs
Fox News
Doctors say nearly 200 children in 12 countries have been diagnosed with acute hepatitis, which causes liver inflammation.
Research is continuing, but experts believe the hepatitis spike is linked to the adenovirus, which is like the common cold.
"It has been detected in around 74 of those cases that have actually been tested for this," says Phillipa Easterbrook, a WHO senior scientist. "It is very unusual for an adenovirus to cause this type of severe symptoms."
