Child Hepatitis Update

 Cases continue to spread globally...and there is a report that some of the original cases in Alabama ended with the death of five of  those children:


"Dr. Jay Butler, the deputy director for infectious diseases at the CDC, noted that 90 percent of these children were hospitalized dating back to October 2021, when nine such cases were identified in Alabama. He said 14 percent required an emergent liver transplant and five of the children tragically died."
