"As of 8/6/2020, CDC has received reports of 570 confirmed cases of MIS-C and 10 deaths in 40 states and Washington, DC."

"99% of cases (565) tested positive for SARS CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19. The remaining 1% were around someone with COVID-19."

Thanks, the first study I linked had only looked at 26 states. This is still a very small number considering the total number of likely cases of COVID in the <18 demographic.

Thanks, so the chance is roughly 500/5,000,000 among individuals with a positive covid test.

MIS-C only affects children so the denominator is less than 5,000,000. But your point still stands, it seems to be relatively rare.
