COVID-19 (2019 novel coronavirus) update from East Bay Pediatrics for May 13, 2020

5/13/2020

 
​COVID-19 has caused a major difference in our lives now and likely for the future. The good news is that this problem has caused only minor morbidity and almost no mortality in children in California. Less than 50 cases of children positive for COVID-19 have been admitted to intensive care units in the U.S., and most had serious pre-existing conditions. 

Recently in New York, an increase in a condition known as Kawasaki's disease has been linked to a positive test for coronavirus, but the connection for this multi-system immunological syndrome is not clear. More good news is that the presentation and treatment of Kawasaki's disease are well known and distinct from the usual symptoms of COVID-19. Your East Bay Pediatrics physicians see and treat several children each year with Kawasaki's disease.
