Cooper Wuthrich’s fever spiked as his joints and organs became inflamed, including his heart, putting his life at risk, his father said. "Cooper would never, has never complained about pain, but that’s all he could do was tell me how bad he hurt."

"Luckily, it is a rare complication, but it’s a complication that can get kids pretty sick pretty quickly," Truong said. In nearly two-thirds of cases, children went to intensive care units, and the average ICU stay was five days.
