Working in the era of the novel coronavirus disease 2019 can predispose to cognitive bias. We present a case of life-threatening bacterial infection misdiagnosed as multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children. While multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children-related myocardial dysfunction is now a well-recognized complication of coronavirus disease 2019, a rigorous differential diagnosis approach, notably for infectious etiologies, is paramount.
在 2019 年冠状病毒病的时代工作可能会导致认知偏差。我们报告了一例危及生命的细菌感染被误诊为儿童多系统炎症综合征的病例。虽然儿童多系统炎症综合征相关的心肌功能障碍现在是 2019 年冠状病毒病的一种公认并发症，但重要的是要采取严格的鉴别诊断方法，特别是针对感染性病因。
