This study doesn't follow the usual testing phases — it may be an observational study or a different type of research.
This is a tracking study that follows children with severe COVID-19 infection who visit emergency departments in Israel and England. Researchers want to understand how many children develop serious illness from COVID-19 and what happens to them while they're in the hospital. The study also includes children who develop a rare complication called multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children (MIS-C), which can happen after COVID-19 infection.
Even though COVID-19 is no longer as widespread as it once was, doctors still need to watch for and learn from severe cases in children. This information helps hospitals prepare for future outbreaks and helps public health officials make better decisions about protecting children's health.

If your child is enrolled, researchers will collect information from their medical records while they are being treated in the emergency department or admitted to the hospital. This includes test results, the type of oxygen or breathing support they receive, and their outcomes during their hospital stay. There are no special procedures or visits beyond standard hospital care—the researchers are simply documenting what is already happening as part of your child's treatment.
