    The pandemic of Novel Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19), caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), has provoked hundreds of thousands of deaths, resulting in catastrophe for humans. Although some insights have been garnered in studies on women, children and young adults infected with COVID-19, these often remain fragmented in literature. Therefore, we discussed the impact of COVID-19 pandemic on women, children and young patients, particularly those with underlying cardiovascular comorbidities or congenital heart disease. Furthermore, we gathered and distilled the existing body of literature that describes their cardiovascular complications and the recommended actions in favour of those patients toward the post-peak pandemic period. Although many questions still require answers, this article is sought to help the practicing clinician in the understanding and management of the threatening disease in special populations.

    Being a cardiologist means sacrificing big part of your private life in order to succeed and reach the goal. Furthermore, being a female cardiologist brings even heavier burden and this fact often discourages women from choosing cardiology as a life-time profession. The lack of career progress, family responsibilities, radiation exposure and its impact on female reproduction, and the discrimination and sexual harassment that are still present today are among the most common challenges in the career path of every female doctor. Although there's an improvement of gender disparities in the last decades , women cardiologists are still struggling with many problems on a daily basis. These challenges were crucial in the decision for making an organization that will represent and encourage female cardiologists around the world. Several like-minded and strong individuals came out with the idea to create an organization that will raise awareness and stand united for equal rights, and today, we proudly call it Pink International Young Academy (Pink IYAC). This organization aims to help all female cardiologists who encounter problems during their career path, and support them in fulfilling their dreams.

    Women's participation is steadily growing in medical schools, but they are still not sufficiently represented in cardiology, particularly in cardiology leadership positions. We present the contemporary distribution of women leaders in cardiology departments in the World Health Organization European region.
