Some experts doubt there's a link between Kawasaki disease and coronavirus.
While doctors know how to treat Kawasaki disease, they still don’t know what causes it or why some people get it. Esper says"a cemetery of different reports" have hypothesized the disease is caused by viruses while others say people may be genetically predisposed.
Esper says the main indicator of the disease can be found in the heart. Coronary artery aneurysm, or a dilation of the coronary arteries, is what distinguishes Kawasaki from any other inflammatory disease.The condition was first reported by doctors in Britain, Italy and Spain in late April.issued an alert noting there had been an increase in the number of children with “a multi-system inflammatory state requiring intensive care” across the country.
Spain’s Association of Pediatrics recently made a similar warning, telling doctors that in recent weeks, there had been a number of school-age children suffering from “an unusual picture of abdominal pain, accompanied by gastrointestinal symptoms” that could lead within hours to shock, low blood pressure and heart problems.
