    The #COVIDー19 pandemic has reached a critically new high level of cases in #Africa with over 500K cases. We must adopt an aggressive and bold approach: #maskonallfaces, ramp up Test, Trace, and Treat, strengthen community response. This will save lives and save economy!

        Totally agree. But I'm afraid that most Africa countries are mostly testing and treating without proper contact tracing. For me, contact tracing is first priority.

        Story Story--Story. African Leaders should focus on more serious pandemics such as corruption and malaria, and not COVID-19 in a bid to feel global! We ain't global without catching up on the basics

        From my point of view the corrupt states are most likely affected compared to the least corrupt ones. If we fought corruption most likely covid19 would go with it
