'My son was lifeless like a zombie after Kawasaki disease symptoms linked to coronavirus'

Chloe Knight, 22, from Edinburgh shared little Freddie Merrylees' story as the NHS issued a warning about the mysterious new "coronavirus-related" condition.Chloe, pictured with little Freddie, says the ordeal was the worst week of her lifeCredit: Chloe Knight Little Freddie first fell ill just before lockdown, experiencing a rash all over his body and a high fever.

Chloe took him to the doctors who said it was likely a case of Scarlett Fever - a contagious illness caused by Streptococcus, usually manifested in a rash and a high fever.She said: "At first when the rash appeared I din't think it was anything too bad...but [over time] I was concerned it was something a lot worse."

After another trip to the doctors with no improvement, Freddie's parents took him to the Royal Hospital for Sick Children, but were told Freddie's illness was still just a "bad case" of Scarlett Fever, and he'd be better in a few days.But just days later the three year old had deteriorated into a "zombie"-like condition and the youngster's nose was bleeding "out of nowhere".
