Amref Health Africa COVID-19 Response Report - Shortened Version
Amref’s COVID-19 response started in mid-March 2020, four days after the first case was detected in Kenya and on the same day as Tanzania’s first case. The response in 10 East, Southern, and Western African countries have delivered significant results. Almost 30 COVID-19 specific projects have been rolled out in communities and reprogramming has enabled another 45 ongoing projects to incorporate COVID-19 into their routine implementation plans. 10 million young people have been reached with demand creation messages. 5.4 million people in Africa have been reached with infection prevention and control measures and 250,000 health workers have been trained in COVID-19 response interventions across the continent.
