Africa is the World Health Organization-region least affected by the Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) pandemic. Here, we compare the situation in severely hit Italy with that in less hit Burkina Faso, focussing on the differences in epidemiological, geographical, demographical, cultural and medical conditions to highlight how a full-blown war on the pandemic can impact on other, equally important aspects of global child health.
