Heart disease does not only occur in adults and the elderly, newborn babies and kids can also develop cardiac disease.

Congenital heart disease is defined as a heart problem that occurs as the baby's heart is developing during pregnancy, before the baby is born. In fact, congenital heart defects are the most common birth defects. The incidence accounts approximately for 0.8 – 1% of newborns. It is commonly found in female children, rather than male ones with the ratio 3:1.

Amid the COVID-19 pandemic that has spread across the globe, a link has been discovered between a disease with symptoms similar to Kawasaki's and COVID-19, which has resulted in the death of children due to complications.
