Her doctor says she is a 'textbook' case of a concerning new COVID-19-related illness that is popping up around the country.

There are 82 confirmed cases of COVID-19-associated Pediatric Multi-System Inflammatory Syndrome, which has features that overlap those of Kawasaki disease.An eighth grader in Portland, Oregon, is recovering in the intensive care unit after being rushed to the hospital with cardiac failure. Her doctor now says she is a"textbook" case ofLeah, 14, had been sick for days, but when her condition worsened last week she knew she had to see a doctor.

"She presented with fever, red eyes, abdominal pain and a blood pressure of only 70 over 30 -- so very, very low," Dr. Mark Buchholz, Leah's doctor at Randall Children's Hospital, told ABC News."Her primary care doctor actually had heard and knew of this syndrome and called the paramedics and sent her over to the emergency department really quickly.

Since being admitted, Leah has responded incredibly well to treatment, which includes blood thinners and immunoglobulin. At least five children have died from PMIS in New York, Gov. Andrew Cuomo announced on Tuesday, including a 5-year-old in New York City."This is truly disturbing," Cuomo said."We raise it because it's something parents should be aware of."

Seems like every ailment is covid related now

Praying for all the kids🙏🙏🙏

Don't 'textbook' cases need to be backed up by established facts, or can the term just be tossed around at random?

Fear porn.

🤔

What the hell does that mean anyway? ,,,, Textbook!!!!? Where is this world heading now ? Somebody clear me ........

Its more probable that exposure to electromagnetic radiations, coupled with retarded vaccine protocols, and existing diseases, has caused this new mystery illness. Because we r looking for the cause in the BIOLOGICAL arena, not the tech or electromagnetic radiation side.

I have yet to see ABC ask the POTUS, why haven't people on SSI receives a stimulus check. Do you not think our most needy people should be taken care of? Please ask POTUS, why? Prices on food and everything else has gone up, they NEED it!

Fear fear fear ! Are you scared yet ?

These are the children Trump is willing to sacrifice in opening up the schools without testing any of the kids for the Coronavirus. He's not sacrificing his son nor kids of his Republicans colleges. He will Sacrifice any and all Americans to get reelected even his Trumpets.

FakeNewsAlert FearMongering LiberalBullShit

Thanks to China

Oh ffs.. over 20,000 cases of kawasaki or 'kawasaki-like' diseases are reported in the US EVERY YEAR. It's not considered serious, and treated with anti-inflammatory medicine/aspirin 🤦 Stop trying to push the panic button.

May God save her but we're she to die, the lying liberals and their fakenews allies will count it as a Covid 19 death. That's why they're already relating it even though they're not even SURE of what ailment it is.

Here’s FakeNews ABC reporting on a rare occurrence of the disease to push the FALSE perception that young people are just as vulnerable as the elderly. THIS IS A LIE. And they’re pushing it to terrify people into supporting the economy-destroying lockdown. 🖕

Fake news

Apart from the media, nobody talks about this illnes. Media, 4th authority of State!

But Leah still contracted PMIS. 'She had about five to six days of fever, then abdominal, abdominal pain, shortness of breath, and then the red eyes and just really feeling crummy,' Buchholz said.

The replies below are horrific in that they're all nonsense jokes. Wtf.

God will continue to heal her. 🙏🏻

Thankfully she is recovering, the symptoms are quite severe.. whats happening in this world right now is very unusual..

Who wrote that textbook? Lmao. Eat a 🍆

It is more like Kawazaki disease than any other illness. thanks to her primary care provider for taking the appropriate action.

Yes, let’s try to scare everyone about “the children” based on mere antecdotes with questionable linkage to the virus now that it is crystal clear that Covid-19 really only significantly affects the elderly and very ill. Do your part to feed the fear porn

Is that like Baby Corona? Asking for a friend...

I am a mother. I am angry to see doctors +media linking what appears to be kawasaki (not a new illness) to coronavirus. Its irresponsible. It creates unwarranted panic. If you don't know the cause, do the research. Not every illness is related to covid-19

Like I’ve said from the start: this is a CORONAVIRUS! Look up the traits of a coronavirus and you can predict what COVID19 will do. It doesn’t need to be hard y’all.

Here we go!

So what’s this illness that seems to be so much worse than the one that killed over 80k Americans and shut down the way of life because we didn’t accept its existence? Please, fucking enlighten us ABC. I would love to hear this.

Textbook scare tactics

Everyone I think believes in an afterlife, but please stick a ventilator down are throats. That way we don't really find out.

CYTOKINE STORM? DR. ZELENKO out-patient treatment(EARLY) 1. Hydroxychloroquine 200mg twice a day for 5 days 2. Azithromycin 500mg once a day for 5 days 3. Zinc sulfate 220mg daily 699 patients in New York with ZERO deaths, ZERO hospitalizations.

Bollux... not in the text book yet. Nothing COVID-19 is text book yet. Timing is such that the second edition might be useful.

The media be like:

Well why don’t the doctors talk to the European doctors who have been dealing with this for 2 months... Or maybe the media could actually report it correctly from a European news outlet!!! But you must stampede the Sheeple!!! Right?!

Y’all are a bunch of fear porn LIARS! Just making things up now... You should be tarred and feathered.

Understanding Coronavirus and immunity Some governments have suggested that the detection of antibodies.. Understand it from virologists.

There is no other illness in the entire country.... It's like a miracle

Stop lying.

Kawasaki disease? Sounds European

Poor girl. I hope she has a speedy recovery.
