find out what this disease of Luana Piovani and Pedro Scooby's daughter is

In her report on Tuesday (21), the artist said that her daughter Liz started feeling symptoms at school, where she was infected, in Portugal. “Liz was at school today and her cheeks and arms started to get very red and itchy. The teacher then called me and asked me to pick her up, because maybe she had parvovirus, as there were two children in the same class who were suspected of having it and it is quite contagious.”.

In order not to expose her daughter in the hospital, a virtual consultation was held. “I gave her an antihistamine and applied ointment and now she's gone, no pink cheeks, no red, itchy arms. The doctor said that as long as there are symptoms, she should not go to school. There's nothing to do. You just have to be careful with adults, because if they catch it and have low immunity, it can cause changes in their blood. But thank God everything is resolved here, Lizoquinha is 100%”.

Luana also warned that according to the doctor, the disease causes more damage in adults with low immunity. Clarifyappeared in the stories.
