The father of a 14-year-old recovering from a Covid-19-related syndrome says all the symptoms began with a slight fever and some rashes on his son's hands. He was later hospitalized with heart failure and his fever was so high he 'couldn't move anything.'
The condition, which doctors are calling multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children, has shown up in children across the US -- and internationally."We dismissed it," John McMorrow told CNN's Don Lemon Monday night."We spoke to his pediatrician and he gave us some antibiotics, he had a slight fever. But within five days it blew up to be a lot more than that."An 8-year-old boy with coronavirus antibodies went into cardiac arrest.
"The leading hypothesis is that it is due to the immune response of the patient."Similar cases have been reported internationally, including in the United Kingdom and Italy. Positive for both virus and antibodies McMorrow's doctor, Dr. Thomas Connors, from NewYork-Presbyterian Morgan Stanley Children's Hospital, told Lemon Monday when he became involved the teen was experiencing a high fever, high heart rate and low blood pressure.
