Abstract

The pandemic of the new coronavirus infection COVID-19, caused by SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus, continues to develop. The first data indicated that children tolerate this infection much easier than adults, the disease course is generally asymptomatic and mild. Chinese, American and European scientists described a variety of skin manifestations in children with COVID-19 coronavirus infection. The article presents literature data on skin manifestations in children, characteristic for COVID-19. In April 2020, the description of a new severe inflammatory syndrome in children associated with SARS-CoV-2, called multisystem inflammation syndrome (MIS), appeared for the first time. The article presents literature data on MIS clinical manifestations and its incidence. The authors describe clinical observation of MIS development in a 7-year-old child with COVID-19 and with lesions of the skin and mucous membranes.
