description The COVID-19 had caused as a global pandemic and resulted in enormous burdens. In addition, faced with the proliferation of SARS-CoV 2 variant strains, this pandemic is continuing unremitting. The world seemed to focus primarily on middle-aged and elderly deaths, however the interest of the impact of COVID-19 on children is limited. Scientists have estimated that orphanhood and caregiver death related to COVID-19 had increased twice in the last six months compared with the first 14 months of the pandemic. Orphans face directly the health consequences.
