Grayson is a four-month-old baby who lives with his parents in wales, England. During this time, Grayson had various manifestations of illness, including high fever, runny nose, and reluctance to eat. Initially, Dad Macaulley and Mom Lara thought his symptoms were all due to teething, but the situation gradually became worse, and they took Little Grayson to the hospital and eventually became positive for COVID-19.
At Christmas, they met with two families, and no one had symptoms at the time. According to reports, Grayson should have contracted covid-19 after the party. After getting a positive test result on December 27, they notified everyone they had been exposed to.
Marculi and Laura said that Grayson was drowsy all day on the 28th, sleeping most of the time, and also had many symptoms associated with teething, such as high fever, and had been uncomfortable. In addition, Grayson coughed, had a runny nose, did not eat, and had a mottled rash on his skin.
Finding Grayson very uncomfortable that night, Laura and Marcuari spent almost the night with the kids. The next day, they were going to call an ambulance to the hospital, but were told they might have to wait eight hours. They rushed to the hospital with their children, where doctors tested the blood and gave Grayson antibiotics. At the time, Grayson had a high fever of 39.4 degrees Celsius and a heartbeat of 210 beats per minute, compared with a normal four-month-old baby with a pulse of 80 to 160 beats per minute.
Doctors were already worried that Grayson wouldn't be able to survive. Grayson was exhausted and had no strength to cry, and the nurse had no resistance when he gave him an injection. After the positive test results came out, Grayson was closely monitored, and his condition gradually stabilized that night. Laura said: "Thankfully he was a well-rounded child who recovered quickly under the proper care of the paramedics. ”
During their two days in the hospital, they saw eight children under the age of three test positive for COVID-19, and laura and Marcus themselves were diagnosed positive for COVID-19 after the children were discharged. Laura hopes that more parents will wake up, do not take it lightly when their children are uncomfortable, and check whether they are infected with the new crown as soon as possible.
