To the Editor: Multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children (MIS-C) have been reported from various parts of the globe including India sharing clinical features with Kawasaki disease (KD) and toxic shock syndrome (TSS) [1]. World Health Organisation (WHO) and Centre for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) have laid down case defining criteria for MIS-C separately [2, 3]. Antibody dependent enhancement (ADE) is the proposed pathogenesis leading to cytokine storm. Intravenous immunoglobulin…
