Serious Illness Affecting Children And Pregnant Women In The U.S. | Health Live
In the U.S., a serious illness affecting children and pregnant women is being reported as Slapped Cheek Syndrome. This condition, also known as fifth disease, is caused by the parvovirus B19. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), the virus spreads through respiratory droplets and can cause a distinctive rash on the cheeks, giving it the name "slapped cheek." In children, symptoms may include a red rash on the face, mild fever, and joint pain. Pregnant women infected with parvovirus may face risks such as anemia or complications in the unborn baby. The CDC emphasizes the importance of good hygiene practices to prevent the spread of this virus, especially in settings with young children and pregnant women.
