Yes, both are high,: but nonspecific. The WBC count should be below 10K and the platelets are usually lower than 578K. There could be infection or another inflammatory process going on. Without knowing the child or the clinical picture (signs and symptoms), it is hard to comment further. Please contact the child's doctor or consult one of us on Prime.
