2019年12月，中国发现了一种新的冠状病毒——严重急性呼吸综合征冠状病毒-2 （SARS-CoV-2）及其相关疾病——冠状病毒病2019 （COVID-19）。这种病毒传播迅速，并于2020年3月被宣布为大流行。科学家预测，最糟糕的情况将发生在非洲，因为非洲是人类发展指数最不发达的大陆，在实现联合国可持续发展目标（sdg）方面落后于其他大陆，提供社会服务的资源不足，而且有许多脆弱的国家。此外，报告非洲COVID-19发现的研究相对较少。相反，较发达国家报告的疾病发病率和死亡率较高。然而，对于非洲来说，早期对COVID-19发病率和死亡率的预测和建模并不符合现实。因此，本次论坛的主要目标是汇集传染病和公共卫生专家，概述非洲COVID-19的概况，并就非洲的行为方式分享他们的想法和意见。此外，专家们强调了需要采取哪些措施来支持非洲巩固现状，克服COVID-19的负面影响，从而加快实现可持续发展目标。
In December 2019, a new coronavirus, severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) and associated disease, coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), was identified in China. This virus spread quickly and in March, 2020, it was declared a pandemic. Scientists predicted the worst scenario to occur in Africa since it was the least developed of the continents in terms of human development index, lagged behind others in achievement of the United Nations sustainable development goals (SDGs), has inadequate resources for provision of social services, and has many fragile states. In addition, there were relatively few research reporting findings on COVID-19 in Africa. On the contrary, the more developed countries reported higher disease incidences and mortality rates. However, for Africa, the earlier predictions and modelling into COVID-19 incidence and mortality did not fit into the reality. Therefore, the main objective of this forum is to bring together infectious diseases and public health experts to give an overview of COVID-19 in Africa and share their thoughts and opinions on why Africa behaved the way it did. Furthermore, the experts highlight what needs to be done to support Africa to consolidate the status quo and overcome the negative effects of COVID-19 so as to accelerate attainment of the SDGs.
