Most of the children tested negative for coronavirus when they were admitted to hospital but antibody tests showed they had previously had the disease.
Dr Whittaker said: "The peak we’re seeing in children with this paediatric inflammatory syndrome is several weeks after the peak of Covid-19 across the country." Professor Viner said the syndrome is "exceptionally rare" and should not prevent children going back to school. A study in The Lancet on Wednesday revealed a small number of children in Italy and the US have also been affected by the disease.
