Quarantine caused mysterious hepatitis in children

Experts in Great Britain believe they have identified the cause of recent instances of mysterious liver problems affecting young children worldwide.

Investigations suggest that two common viruses returned after quarantine was completed by pandemics, and caused the rare but very serious cases of hepatitis.

More than 1000 children, many under the age of five, in 35 countries are thought to have been affected.

Some, including 12 cases in great Britain, need a liver transplant.

The two teams of researchers, from London and Glasgow, say babies were exposed later than normal due to Covid's restrictions lost an early immunity to the adinovirus, which usually causes chills and concerns in the stomach, and from the virus two linked to adino, which normally does not cause disease and requires a "affective" co-infective virus, such as the codenovirus - to reproduce

This may explain why some developed unusual and disturbing liver complications.
