Two children have died after coming down with a mysterious illness affecting dozens of children in New York State.

A 7-year-old boy died late last week at Maria Fareri Children’s Hospital in Valhalla after suffering neurological complications from what is now called pediatric multi-symptom inflammatory syndrome, a possible side effect of COVID-19.

Gov. Andrew Cuomo shared an update Friday, announcing the death of a 5-year-old boy.

“Right now we have a new issue that we’re looking at, which is something we’re just investigating now, but, while rare, we’re seeing some cases where children affected with the COVID virus can become ill with symptoms similar to the Kawasaki disease or Toxic Shock-like syndrome that literally causes inflammation in their blood vessels,” he said. “This past Thursday, a 5-year-old boy passed away from COVID-related complications, and the State Department of Health is investigating several other cases that presents similar circumstances.”
