In this episode, Dr. Samantha Mishra and I introduce you to Dr.Kelly Levasseur, DO, MS, who is a Pediatric Emergency Medicine Physician at Children’s Hospital of Michigan located in Detroit. Dr. Levasseur is a graduate of Michigan State University School of Osteopathic Medicine and completed her pediatric residency and pediatric emergency medicine fellowship at the Children’s Hospital of Michigan.
Throughout the pandemic many of us were under the impression that kids aren’t as negatively impacted by a COVID-19 infection as adults, especially the elderly and those with co-morbidities. Although this statement is truly in a very general sense, there’s still plenty to be concerned about and understand. Dr. Kelly and Dr. Sam help us appreciate what is at stake for children who are infected by COVID-19. Then, Dr. Levasseur lends her expertise to help EMS understand MIS-C, or multi-inflammatory syndrome in children, what it looks like and its relationship to COVD-19.
