In addition to the existing concern generated during the current COVID-19 pandemic outbreak in the adult population, we see how this pathology affects the pediatric population in the same way. Several countries have declared health alerts for a new syndrome that occurs late in children exposed to COVID-19, called "multisystem inflammatory syndrome".
