As he said, the symptoms they need to mobilize the parents are fever, abdominal pain, vomiting, diarrhea, dark urine and “yellowing” of the skin.
«We used to know hepatitis as hepatitis A, B, C and E. However, we have stopped seeing it because all the children have been vaccinated. Hepatitis is an acute inflammation of the liver“, He pointed out.
He stressed that the cause is still unknown, although there are some early indications. «Trying to find the cause, at first we suspected whether it was due to some food, drink or toy and nothing was found. We looked at whether it was related to the vaccine, but it is not related to the vaccine either, because none of these children had been vaccinated. Half of the children had been infected with the coronavirus, but it could not have been caused by the disease. However, In about half of the cases, a new virus, the adenovirus, was found“, Stated characteristically Mr. Andreou.
