Multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children (MIS-C) is a severe hyperinflammatory condition characterized by fever, systemic inflammation, and multiorgan dysfunction that manifests late in the course of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). MIS-C generally occurs 2 to 6 weeks after SARS-CoV-2 infection. The incidence of MIS-C is unknown, although it appears to occur in less than 1 percent of children with confirmed SARS-CoV-2 infection. MIS-C has overlapping clinical features of toxic shock syndrome and Kawasaki disease, although the pathogenesis is unclear. Epidemiologists, researchers, and clinicians are struggling to describe and characterize the disease phenomenon while treating patients at the …

The most common host entry point of human adapted coronaviruses (CoV) including SARS-CoV-2 is through the initial colonization in the nostril and mouth region which is responsible for spread of the infection. Most recent studies suggest that the commercially available oral and nasal rinse products are effective in inhibiting the viral replication. However, the anti-viral mechanism of the active ingredients present in the oral rinses have not been studied. In the present study, we have assessed in vitro enzymatic inhibitory activity of active ingredients in the oral mouth rinse products: aloin A and B, chlorhexidine, eucalyptol, hexetidine, menthol, triclosan, methyl …
