A mum is warning parents about life-changing side-effect from having Covid that she says "no one is taking seriously". But Dawn Kafi says since son Malisse tested positive for coronavirus, the youngster has been left with a debilitating disorder that has left him unable to eat as normal and saw the weight drop off, reports the Liverpool Echo.Earlier this week, experts said that some children had developed fussy eating habits after having Covid, due to to parosmia - a disorder in which people experience strange and often unpleasant smell distortions.The Liverpool mum says the condition can 'ruin lives' and is a lot more serious than a simple case of being fussy.Dawn says Malisse tested positive for Covid back in September and lost his sense of taste and smell, but it was so bad that 'everything was making him vomit'.Malisse was eventually diagnosed with parosmia and deteriorated in health as he lost 2kg of weight in just two days.
Dawn has since told the LiverpoolEcho that Malisse is still unwell four months on from testing positive for Covid, and is unable to eat proper foods.
She said: "This isn't a case of fussy eating, there's people out there laughing saying children are being fussy and it's very upsetting."Malisse is still very limited to his foods and he's still unwell.
