I’ve decided I should be on the pardon list if that’s still in the works

The UK Health Security Agency are suggesting that the are linked to adenovirus infection.
UKHSA wrote: Findings continue to suggest that the rise in sudden onset hepatitis in children may be linked to adenovirus infection, but other causes are still being actively investigated.

As it is not typical to see this pattern of symptoms from adenovirus, we are investigating other possible contributing factors, such as another infection – including coronavirus (COVID-19) – or an environmental cause.

We are also exploring whether increased susceptibility due to reduced exposure during the COVID-19 pandemic could be playing a role, or if there has been a change in the genome of the adenovirus.
In six days the Lord made the heavens and the earth, the sea, and all that is in them. The human body was knocked up pretty late on the Friday afternoon, with a deadline looming. How well do you expect it to work?

Have you considered stupidity as an explanation

Many thanks. My spelling and grammar seem a bit below par this morning as well because "the are linked ..." doesn't make much sense. The week isn't getting off to a good start!
