The Cover of the current issue of the Sudanese Journal of Paediatrics (SJP) pays tribute to the Sudanese doctors who gave their lives around the globe fighting the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic. They are represented by Dr. Muhammad Al-Faki (Mohamed Elhassan Elfaki Osman), Member of SJP Editorial Board, and Haematology Oncology Consultant at King Saud University Medical City (KSUMC) in Riyadh. He was mourned in Saudi Arabia, being one of the first two doctors to lose their lives as a result of the COVID-19 (See Editorial). His photo overlays the pyramids of the Napta/Meroitic Kingdom (800BC–350AD), reflecting the heritage of Sudan deep in civilisation (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mero%C3%AB). The Meroitic script, the indigenous alphabet consisting of 23 letters, which has been developed in the Naptan Period at about 700–300BC, is also shown. The Arabic script of the ‘Sudanese Journal of Paediatrics’, reflecting the current main language and culture, was designed at the College of Fine and Applied Arts, Sudan University of Science and Technology (SUST), by Taha El Atta, PhD.
