Why Sars-Cov-2 is a suspect:
1) Many of these hepatitis patients tested positive for Sars-Cov-2 when they arrived at the hospital for hepatitis.
2) Sars-Cov-2 is changing fast. Just in the last few months it has changed substantially several times. Increased hepatitis risk in kids might be one of those changes.
3) The usual causes of hepatitis were not present, and no better explanation has been found yet.
Investigation still in progress. Might be one of these two viruses. Might be something else that hasn’t been detected yet.

(random sampling, correlation, ... yada yada) 2) All viruses are changing fast ... that doesn't mean they suddenly produce totally new types of symptoms. 3) Hepatits can have soooo many reasons - it literally means just inflammation of the liver - can be almost anything

COVID variants were already observed to trigger totally new types of symptoms. https://www.thelancet.com/journals/lancet/article/PIIS0140-6736(22)00327-0/fulltext https://www.thelancet.com/journals/lancet/article/PIIS0140-6... Also, liver damage (or multiorgan failure) is hardly a "totally new type of symptom" for covid https://www.elsevier.es/en-revista-annals-hepatology-16-articulo-covid-19-liver-what-do-we-S1665268120301666 https://www.elsevier.es/en-revista-annals-hepatology-16-arti...
