MIS-C

 

In April 2020, clinicians in the United Kingdom recognized increased reports of previously healthy children presenting with a severe inflammatory syndrome with Kawasaki disease-like features. The cases occurred in children testing positive for current or recent infection by SARS-CoV-2, the novel coronavirus said to cause COVID-19, based on reverse-transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) or serologic assay, or who had an epidemiologic link to a COVID-19 case. Patients presented with a persistent fever and a constellation of symptoms including hypotension, multiorgan (e.g., cardiac, gastrointestinal, renal, hematologic, dermatologic and neurologic) involvement, and elevated inflammatory markers. Respiratory symptoms were not present in all cases.

 

Symptoms of MIS-C can include prolonged fever, red eyes, skin rash, swelling of hands/feet, abdominal pain, neck pain, vomiting, diarrhea, fatigue and cardiac issues. (article) (article) (article)

 

Around the same time in the USA, ostensibly as COVID-19 cases were rapidly increasing in New York City and New York State, the New York City Department of Health and Mental Hygiene received similar reports.  On May 14, 2020 the USA’s Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) published an alert identifying multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children (MIS-C).  CDC Health Alert

 

The CDC defines MIS-C as a condition that "results in fever, laboratory evidence of inflammation, and severe illness involving more than two organs that requires hospitalization" in patients under the age of 21. MIS-C patients must also have previously tested positive for COVID-19 or were exposed to a confirmed case.  In most cases children developed the condition "two to four" weeks after infection with the coronavirus.

 

Possibly called “hyper immune symptom” in Sweden? (video)

 

Called “paediatric inflammatory multisystem syndrome (PIMS-TS)” in Australia (article) and India (article) (5G in India)

 

Dr. Stephen Freedman, a child health and wellness researcher at the University of Calgary, leading an international study of COVID-19 in children (article)

 

MIS-C & COVID-19

 

While the CDC links MIS-C, a Kawasaki-like illness, with COVID-19, the 8 suspected cases in British Columbia, Canada were not related to COVID-19.  (article

 

Additionally, an Italian June 2020 study written in The Lancet compares patient groups pre- and post- COVID-19 (article). 

 

It should be noted that the symptoms for MIS-C are similar to those from electromagnetic radiation poisoning (AO Wireless) and a study has shown that high levels of electromagnetic frequency exposure make damaged cells more susceptible to coronavirus (video mark 32:00).  Article:  5G, Mitochondria & Coronavirus – a Tale of Depolarization

They both tested positive for severe inflammation in the body, has red eyes, my daughter had an itchy rash, fevers, and her lip swelled up. She had inflammation in her airway, and she doesn’t have a cell phone or cooks in the microwave and none of us have 5G data on our phones.  My cousins daughter also had severe inflammation in her bladder and colon, red eyes, fevers, trouble breathing, and was filling up with fluid everywhere, including heart and lungs. Since she was in the hospital getting worse every day for 5 days she would have gotten better if it was due to radiation.  After the girls received anti inflammatory meds and steroids they have gotten better. Adalyn is now almost out of ICU!  Teresa Caudillo
