The Mystery Infection


A worried mom runs her six-year-old son into a crowded ER. She carries him in her arms, because his fever has left him weak and too tired to walk. After he’s checked in, the nurse takes his vital signs. The young boy answers some questions about how he’s feeling, but he leaves most of the details to his mother to answer. She fills in details about what her son has experienced over the past few days. The information provided is organized into medical files that the medical team will review.

He has had a constant fever over the past few days and complained of being cold. He has a dry cough that seems to get worse at night. His mother reports episodes where it feels like he is really struggling to breathe.


The patient is extremely weak and his mom says that he is sleeping 12–14 hours a day. She has been giving him over-the-counter medications, but they don’t seem to have helped his fever or his pain and discomfort. He is drinking plenty of water and eating small meals.
