Dear MEL Topic Readers,
These innovations are helping combat Covid-19 across Africa
The population of Africa is over 1.2billion in 54 countries, nearly as many as the one of China and India. The top three economies are Egypt, Nigeria, and South Africa and the bottom three are São Tomé and Príncipe, Seychelles, and Comoros, none of which you probably have ever heard of. Only a handful of countries have a decent middle class, and the rest of the countries are distinctly divided between very rich and very poor. In fact, about 600 million people in sub-Saharan Africa are still living without electricity. You can assume it is quite difficult to find who is infected by the coronavirus accurately, distribute vaccines to vaccination sites timely, and vaccinate people properly. In short, there are challenges in logistics, patients monitoring devices, and implementation of vaccination in African countries should vaccines become available for their people. To overcome these hurdles, new technologies have emerged that that may help contain Covid-19, such as rapid test kits, solar-powered refrigerators, and temperature-screening robots.
As always, the last mile is the hardest part.
Enjoy reading the article and learn about the new technologies that help contain the coronavirus pandemic in Africa.
