That’s the type of person she was,†said Dearick Nealy, Deaurra’s father.
According to her father, Deaurra died just days after the initial signs of Multisystem Inflammatory Syndrome, or MIS-C, which is a disease in children that usually follows an infection or exposure to the coronavirus, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
“A perfectly healthy child, just going in for a normal stomach ache and a negative COVID test,†he said.
“Unfortunately, this is a syndrome where it is pretty pronounced when the kids have it,†said Dr.
The CDC says of the syndrome: “We don’t know why some children have gotten sick with MIS-C and others have not.
We also do not know if children with certain health conditions are more likely to get MIS-C.
And so a lot of people, they get lazy with simple sanitary measures like masks and hand sanitizer -- just something simple,†he said
