Kawasaki disease mostly affects children of Japanese and Korean descent but can affect all ethnic groups and involves inflammation of the blood vessels in the arteries, especially the coronary arteries.oversharing" can actually be a true help in the face of life-threatening disease. According to the Slate piece, after posting pictures online a friend quickly came to her with an opinion, which ended up being the correct diagnosis of her son's illness.know, that title seems a tad dramatic, but it really is the case that without Facebook, the story could have ended much differently.

On Mother’s Day, Kogan awoke to find her son Leo had a fever and a mild rash. Like any concerned mother she took him to a urgent care center that was open on Sunday. The rapid strep test came back negative, but it sometimes does with children. The doctor decided to treat Leo for strep anyways.She then shared her son's progress, or lack of, with her Facebook Friends - only Max, her son, was getting worse. Two of Deborah's Facebook Friends saw his condition and the listed symptoms, and called, explaining that she needed to get him back to the hospital ASAP, because Max has what her son had: Kawasaki Disease.
Armed with Amoxicillin, Kogan felt pretty at ease.
Kawasaki disease occurs in 19 out of every 100,000 kids in the United States. It is most common among children of Japanese and Korean descent, but can affect all ethnic groups.Of course, the vast majority of us billion-plus users exist via Facebook somewhere between those two extremes. It hasn’t saved a loved one, and we haven’t been assassinated. We can exist simply as old average, digital reductions of our real selves.

And for those of us who haven’t been murdered or saved from a potentially deadly disease, it’s still as good a tool as ever to voyeuristically stalk exes and people we’re too intimidated to approach in the real world.
