    AbstractSevere acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) has less of an impact among the babies and teenagers, than it does on adults as a whole. Children turned out to be less symptomatic during the coronavirus disease (COVID-19) surge worldwide. Researchers discovered the ways of protection by preemptive care, like, treatment, variants, vaccination, social distancing, and cohorting among children as soon as their medical and epidemiological factors were assessed while being exposed to SARS-CoV-2 transmission. The actual pervasiveness of asymptomatic SARS-CoV-2 contagion is possibly undervalued because of less examination of the asymptomatic children. A half of young-aged people who tested SARS-CoV-2 positive don't show any symptoms as per the study of serology. Nevertheless, there is wide circulation of information reporting a post-infectious acute illness known as multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children (MIS-C) or multisystem hyperinflammatory syndrome. Therefore, we undertook this narrative review to synthesize the evidence from existing studies to assess the relationship between SARS-CoV-2 infections and MIS-C among Children. We reviewed PubMed, Science Direct, and Google Scholar to find the pertinent scientific papers published in English that were available for such analysis. The main purpose of this article is to present, on this limited topic, a better-comprehended review covering pertinent material and data to be informed on SARS-CoV-2 infections and MIS-C among Children.Copyright © 2023 the Author(s).
