Adults with severe COVID-19 risk developing dangerous levels of inflammation in several key organs.
According to UPI, the inflammation can occur simultaneously in the brain, heart, lungs, and kidneys.
The condition is known as multi-system inflammatory syndrome.
More than 400 American children with COVID-19 have also been found to have the condition.
Researchers note that further research is needed to understand the development and long-term effects of this condition.
According to experts, multi-system inflammatory syndrome reinforces the need for prevention efforts to limit the spread of COVID-19.
