Angående mystiska inflammationssymptom, kanske triggar Kawasaki eller något annat hos barn.
Har hört att flera barn i en högstadieskola i Stockholm har fått konstiga ögoninflammationer/rinnande ögon tillsammans med huvudvärk, halsont och så vidare??
Angående Kawasaki-liknande symptom:
Similar cases have also been reported in Belgium, Italy, Spain , the United States and Australia .
The number of children is low: we are talking about 25 cases in Île-de-France, 10 cases in Belgium, three in the United States. No fatal case has yet been identified, says Midi Libre

But the Health Secretary (UK) has today said "we have lost some children" to a disease "we think is caused by the coronavirus".
Speaking on LBC radio, Mr Hancock said: "We have lost some children," he said, adding: "There are some children who have died who didn't have underlying health conditions."
Mr Hancock explained: "It's a fresh, new disease that we think may be caused by coronavirus and the Covid-19 virus.

The World Health Organisation (WHO) said it had asked its global networks of clinicians to be on “alert” for the rare phenomenon,
Professor Jones of Virology at the University of Reading in the United Kingdom pointed out that there are studies that human coronavirus NL63 is related to Kawasaki disease, and both NL63 virus and the new coronavirus that broke out this year use the ACE2 receptor on the surface of the cell membrane to enter the body.
But he believes that it is still too early to say that the new coronavirus is related to Kawasaki disease.
NL63 tros ha funnits i hundratals år även om det inte identifierades förrän 2004 i Holland.
The virus is found primarily in young children, the elderly, and immunocompromised patients with acute respiratory illness. It also has a
seasonal association in temperate climates. A study performed in Amsterdam estimated the presence of HCoV-NL63 in approximately
4.7% of common respiratory illnesses.[4] The virus originated from infected palm civets and bats.[5] HCoV-NL63 is one of seven known coronaviruses to infect humans, including HCoV-229E, HCoV-OC43, HCoV-HKU1, MERS-CoV, the original SARS-CoV (or SARS-CoV-1), and SARS-CoV-2. Estimates of its divergence from HCoV-229E are around 1000 years ago:
it has likely circulated in humans for centuries.

Mänskligheten är alltså redan sen tidigare van vid ett förkylningsvirus som påverkar ACE2-receptorerna. Nära var 20e vanlig luftvägåkomma (=förkylning?) antas orsakad av detta virus. Sannolikheten är alltså stor att man redan haft en NL63-infektion någon gång under sitt liv.
Hur kommer det sig att vi klarar det så mycket bättre än SARS-CoV-2? Är det bara för att vi är vana vid det?
