9. Delayed immune response to the virus and its overcompensating perhaps?

If so then I am not sure what they can do other than immunosuppressant drugs maybe but those come with risks as well and considering how rare this seems to be for children a shotgun approach of giving the drugs to all of them might not be a good idea.
Not to mention of course the issue of there probably being a severe finite amount of those drugs as I think they are mainly for transplant patients.
