A total of four children have died in Sri Lanka due to inflammation caused after contracting COVID-19.
The multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children (MIS-C) was initially detected in the United Kingdom and was found in Sri Lanka earlier this year.
The World Health Organization (WHO) has revealed that the disease can affect children up to the age of 19.
Health officials have stated that infections can occur between 02 and 06 weeks after contracting COVID-19.
Medical experts have urged parents to remain cautious and to seek immediate treatment if children show symptoms of the virus. (NewsWire)
