A baby boy’s eyes temporarily changed from dark brown to bright blue after receiving a common COVID-19 treatment.
The 6-month-old from Thailand was diagnosed with COVID-19 after suffering from a fever and a cough for a day, as detailed in a case published in the medical journal Frontiers in Pediatrics.
The infant was prescribed favipiravir, the antiviral treatment approved by the Thai Ministry of Public Health in 2022 for children with mild to moderate symptoms.
