As many as six children in the four to 12 age group have been suffering from Multi-system Inflammatory Syndrome (MSI-S), which experts said appears to be linked to COVID-19, in Sindhanur town of Raichur district. They are now getting treatment in a private hospital.
Senior paediatrician of Sahana Children Hospital K. Shivaraj, who is treating the patients, confirmed this to
The Hindu over phone on Tuesday stating: “I am providing necessary treatment to all the six children, two from Koppal district and four from Raichur district, and they are all recovering.”
A few weeks after being treated for COVID-19, these children showed signs of having MSI-S, with vomiting and diarrhoea. Medical examination of these children confirmed that they were suffering from MSI-S,which is also commonly called Kawasaki-like illness, Dr. Shivaraj said.
