The baby was delivered in a private hospital in the city in the 33rd week of pregnancy after the mother tested positive for Covid-19. The baby cried after birth and was shifted to mother's side in a stable condition. As mother needed focused treatment when her condition deteriorated, the baby became restless and had difficulty in breathing on the second day and was shifted to NICU.The mother was put on ventilator and baby was brought to hospital as his condition worsened. Dr Bichitrananda Raut, Associate Consultant in Department of Pediatrics and Neonatology and his team diagnosed it to be a case of Neo-natal Multi-system Inflammatory Syndrome in Children (MISC), a rare condition in babies caused by Covid infection.
