General Information










               Thank you, Dr. Goh, for the kind introduction. I would also like to thank NIH and

               CRC for inviting me to share information on Kawasaki Disease and multisystem
               inflammatory syndrome in children (MIS-C) which can probably be associated

               with COVID-19.

               So, I would give a brief overview of what is Kawasaki disease, and to share some

               literature on MIS-C. As mentioned earlier by Dr. Goh, we do not see any Kawasaki
               Disease-like Illness in our COVID-19 children. We will go through the possible
               aetiology of Kawasaki Disease, pathophysiology, how do we diagnose Kawasaki

               Disease and the treatments during acute phase. Then, I would review the literature
               from MIS-C and how should we go from here.
