This article has been retracted due to numerous errors and incorrect conclusions. Certain criteria is required in order to identify MIS-C, including no other attributable cause for the fever. All patients presented with acute dengue fever, thus the clinical condition cannot be called MIS-C. Also, while Covid-19 antibodies were positive, this could be the result of prior infection. Therefore there is no proof of the patients having acute Covid-19, thus invalidating the conclusions. We deeply regret that these issues were not identified prior to publication.
