   Idiot - It certainly can if it's not treated.  See below:   
      
   High levels of bilirubin - usually above 20 mg - can cause deafness,   
   cerebral palsy, or brain damage in some babies. In rare cases, jaundice may   
   indicate the presence of hepatitis. The American Academy of Pediatrics   
   recommends that all infants should be examined for jaundice within a few   
   days after being born.
