  Children with underlying health conditions are prone to suffer covid-19 and suffer critical cases including death, based on antecedent events around the world Professor Sampson Antwi has said. According to Professor Sampson Antwi, the Head of Child Health Directorate at the Komfo Anokye Teaching Hospital (KATH), children are now contracting the Covid-19 and succumning to it due to some underlying conditions. A common disease among children which is more likely to weaken their system and intensify their condition, despite facts that children generally hardly suffer such severe cases, is Multisystem Inflammatory Syndrome (MIS-C). Professor Antwi, speaking on Angel FM’s Anopa Bofo? show, noted that children who have had the MIS-C have succumed to the virus though not all. According to him, a boy diagnosed of same MIS-C condition contracted the virus but survived at their health facility.
