CDC Webinar Dec. 8 on New MIS-C Definition

The CDC and the Council of State and Territorial Epidemiologists (CSTE) have developed a new surveillance case definition for multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children (MIS-C). MIS-C is a rare but severe condition that may occur 2-6 weeks after acute SARS-CoV-2 infection. The new definition will become effective January 1, 2023. CDC will hold a webinar about the new definition on Thursday, December 8 at 2-3 PM ET. Click here for more information and a Zoom link to the webinar.
