But that was my exact thought -- would I do it again? Day 7 of mild symptoms and my relatives starting to get sick one by one -- NO! Day 20 -- still no! For 2-4 weeks after my daughter's symptoms I'll stress about kawasaki signs in her. Perhaps I'll change my time later, but I don't see the risks worth the rewards.

There were 571 cases of COVID associated MIS-C in children as of July 2020. There’s so many zeroes in front of that percentage likelihood I don’t even know where to start. Worry about it if it happens haha. [1] Yes it could happen, but the likelihood of your child hurting themselves with something sharp and pointy in your house is several orders of magnitude higher. This is why I hate the way the media is reporting on these literal one-off symptoms as though everyone who catches Covid will certainly absolutely get them. Kawasaki is broadly associated with all sorts of viral infections. It’s super duper rare.
