If your answer is no, then tune in, this interview is for you.

To help explain this to us today, we welcome our special guest, Dr Nelu a Paediatric Doctor with over 10 years’ experience.

 

We ask Dr Nelu questions including:
What are the common concerns you have found families are having a this time?
What is the difference between Coronavirus and the other common viruses?
What COVID-19 symptoms should parents look out for that would present differently than a common cold, flu or virus?
Children’s temperature can rise above 37.5 degrees for a multitude of reasons, how do you know when you should seek advice from Medical Practitioner?
Is COVID-19 dangerous in children? 
Can COVID-19 and other viruses be treated?
What can parents do to help prevent their children from contracting COVID-19? 
It is commonplace that children can spread and pick up all kinds of bugs whilst at Preschool and School in general. What advice do you have that can help parents support their children to thrive during this time?
There have been a lot of medical papers in the last few weeks highlighting multiple areas of the body aside from the respiratory system that can suffer long term damage as a result of contracting COVID. What should parents be aware of?
While children tend to fare better with coronavirus infections, some paediatric patients develop Multi-system Inflammatory Syndrome in Children, or MIS-C.

The syndrome has been compared to Kawasaki disease, which causes swelling in arteries throughout the body.
