  ABSTRACT: Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), reported first in December 2019 in Wuhan, China. The virus soon spread all over the world and the World Health Organization (WHO) declared a global pandemic on March 11, 2020. At the beginning of the outbreak, infections were more common in adults then in children; however, in the following months, the number of pediatric infection cases increased significantly. The disease in children is less severe, but occasionally it may be complicated with Multisystem Inflammatory Syndrome. Some of the symptoms and signs may be overlapped with other infectious diseases of the childhood and confound the appropriate diagnosis. A high index of suspicion must be maintained in children while making a diagnosis. We report the case of a 5 years old presented with COVOD-19 and EBV co-infection.
