NEW: Kawasaki-like syndrome now reported in 15 states. Based on publicly-available data, the United States case count is at least 164, including: New York (102), New Jersey (18), Massachusetts (8), Connecticut (6), Illinois (6), California (4), Delaware (3), Georgia (3)...
Louisiana (3), Washington D.C. (3), Kentucky (2), Ohio (2), Pennsylvania (1), Utah (1) Washington state (1), and Mississippi (1).
CDC is preparing to release an alert warning doctors to look for a potentially-lethal inflammatory syndrome in children that could be linked to coronavirus. CDC will also release a working case definition, which does not yet exist:

A note on the count: Some hospitals are reporting "a few" cases, which I have counted as 2 cases. Several states have not yet revealed the number of cases, which I count as 1 case. The number 164 almost certainly represents an undercounting of total cases in the United States.
