Pediatric patients with MIS-C have higher SARS-CoV-2 spike IgG titers, possibly indicating a longer time since infection onset.
Severe acute respiratory syndrome-coronavirus-2 (SARSCoV-2) antibody responses in children remain poorly characterized. Here, we show that pediatric patients with multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children (MIS-C) possess higher SARS-CoV-2 spike immunoglobulin G (IgG) titers compared with those with severe coronavirus disease 2019, likely reflecting a longer time since the onset of infection in MIS-C patients.
