The Ministry of Health began collecting data and examining the possibility that the corona virus causes heart disease in children, after it was suspected that at least two cases of coronary artery infection were detected in children in Israel.
In both cases, both at Rambam Hospital in Haifa, they suffered from acute myocardial infarction after coronary disease. In the first case, it was an 11-year-old girl who was in serious condition and 16 years old who was in moderate condition.
Earlier this week, the UK's National Health Service, together with the ICU, jointly issued a letter to all doctors in hospitals and clinics in the United Kingdom to report any cases of a child suffering from abdominal pain and heart disease.
According to reports in the Guardian, in the UK medical services suspect the corona virus, or the combination of the virus with another pathogen, in several cases in children produces a condition of blood vessels and heart in the style similar to Kawasaki disease and sometimes these children experience a toxic shock that the soul needs And significant assistance until the body is stabilized.
The medical officials did not mention this in several cases, but a doctor who spoke to the British Guardian said "there is an unexpected increase in reports of children suffering from late inflammatory symptoms in the blood vessels and in the body's systems and we believe this has been linked to the corona virus."
