Given that you are in a high COVID area and if your child has very high fever with rashes... if you are not sure of allergy please atleast consult online immediately. Rashes and fever can be the presentation of multisystem inflammation seen in children as a result of COVID
Next Steps
Monitor very closely and consult as soon as you can
