Not a Motorbike!

Children  generally appear to have milder symptoms than adults, when they become infected with the Covid-19 virus. In spite of this, it now appears that some virus-infected children may develop Kawasaki disease (https://www.theguardian.com/science/2020/may/13/italian-doctors-find-link-between-covid-19-and-inflammatory-disorder). Although the numbers are small (around 10 cases), hospital workers in Bergamo (Italy), a pandemic 'hot-spot', became convinced that there is a link between this inflammatory disorder (when body's immune system goes into overdrive) and infection with Covid-19. A recent report in the UK also suggests that a teenaged boy, with the viral infection, died from the symptoms of Kawasaki. Perhaps Covid-19 infection is far from benign in all children, even if they do not have evident underlaying disease conditions?
