New Delhi: The second corona wave is beginning to weaken and experts now say the third wave is expected between August and September. In such a situation, there is a danger to the children. Before that, however, a new disease is being observed among children who have recovered from the corona. This is happening to children who had minor symptoms of the corona. The disease is called Multisystem Inflammatory Syndrome (MIS-C). Recently, the Union Health Ministry has asked states to keep an eye on MIS-C cases. Make arrangements to deal with it. Cases of the disease started coming to light in the last two weeks of May.

MIS-C is a type of post covid disease. It occurs only in adolescents and children under 19 years of age. Complications related to this disease come to light 2 to 6 weeks after corona occurs. The child suffering from this complains of swelling in different parts of the body with fever. At the same time, children's lungs, kidneys, heart, intestines, blood systems, skin, eyes, and brain may also be inflamed. Usually, an MIS-C patient complains of swelling in two or more organs.

There is no such collected data in India. However, such cases are coming to light in various States. Such cases have come up in many other cities of the country including Visakhapatnam, Ernakulam. Studies around the world show that 0.15 to 0.2 percent of children have been affected by this post-covid infection. That is, one or two children in 1000 infected with corona have this disease. Although most children do not have serious symptoms of the corona, the disease can also occur in children with sympathetic and common symptoms.
