India's doctors warn over rare, coronavirus-related inflammatory illness in kids
Fox News
Parents should monitor children for symptoms of a rare but potentially fatal inflammatory condition several weeks after a coronavirus infection, doctors in India say.
"I would worry about this condition. We simply don't know how deep this problem is. It is worrisome we still don't have data on the burden of this disease in India," Dr. SP Kalantri, medical superintendent of Kasturba Hospital, said, per BBC. The true toll of India’s MIS-C cases is unknown as the country distances from a deadly second wave that ripped through the health care system. The first wave resulted in at least 2,000 cases of MIS-C, News18 reported, citing data from the Indian Academy of Paediatrics Intensive Care Chapter.More Related News
