How are COVID-19 symptoms different in children?

Besides all other common and classic symptoms of COVID, recent reports have suggested an increase in the number of MIS-C cases in children infected with COVID-19. As per the research, COVID-19 can cause a serious condition called multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children (MIS-C).

Children with MIS-C condition have come up with severe inflammation in various organs of the body, including heart, lungs, blood vessels, kidneys, digestive system, brain, skin or eyes. Earlier a group of researchers at The New York Medics observed a group of 35 children who were admitted to two hospitals. Out of 35 children, 25 met the criteria of the syndrome (MIS-C). The medic claimed that the syndrome affected at least two of the organs in their body, with “no alternative plausible diagnosis”.
