Eligibility:

Inclusion Criteria:

1. Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) detection from a respiratory specimen, and/or

2. Meets criteria for Multisystem Inflammatory Syndrome in Children (MIS-C), and/or

Meets criteria for MIS-C, except has involvement of only 1 organ system Cases meeting clinical criteria for MIS-C but without known SARS-CoV-2 exposure, and who are being treated as MIS-C by the treating physician, but with negative SARS-CoV-2 PCR and pending or negative antibody testing, may be enrolled as subjects. If subsequent antibody testing is positive, cases will be labelled as confirmed MIS-C. If SARS-CoV-2 antibody testing is negative, subjects will be labeled at the end of the study as suspected/not confirmed MIS-C.

Exclusion Criteria:
