SINGAPORE: A one-and-a-half-year-old Singaporean boy who contracted the coronavirus died on Monday (Jun 27), becoming the country's first COVID-19 death under the age of 12. “The cause of death was Encephalitis due to COVID-19,
Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV) and Enterovirus infections,” said the Ministry of Health (MOH) in a media release, adding that the patient had no other past medical history and was previously well.
MOH is going to the dogs. This is false misleading reporting to claim that Covid caused the Encephalitis that killed him.
He was killed by RSV, RSV caused the Encephalitis. RSV-related encephalitis
usually develops within 1 to 2 days after the onset of clinical symptoms, such as high fever, cough, and fatigue.
