Scientists warned of dangerous course of COVID-19 in children and adolescents

Scientists from the Massachusetts and Harvard Medical Schools in the United States said there are dangerous effects of COVID-19 that children and adolescents may face, Healio reports.

Among them, they referred to high fever, abdominal pain, vomiting, diarrhea, heart failure, severe headaches, and rapid fatigue.

Gastrointestinal illnesses have not been ruled out, but are less common in children, the researchers added.

They did not rule out the development of multisystem inflammation syndrome (MIS-C), which negatively affects the cardiovascular system and coronary artery disease. The scientists rely on a study in which patients with the disease were found to have the virus in their intestines.
