COVID-19: Our coverage of the pandemic

The first case of the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) in Africa was reported on 14 February 2020 in Egypt and has continued to spread widely since then. We have developed this dedicated page to provide readers with timely and informed content on COVID-19, focusing on African perspectives. Our articles and research are free to read or download.
