Description

“The most trying time for the continent was when we knew what to do in terms of diagnostics but didn’t have the tools and capacity to do them,” said Dr John Nkengasong, Director of Africa CDC. Africa CDC stepped in immediately, partnering with the WHO and other organizations to convene the first continental training on SARS-CoV-2 diagnostics at the Institut Pasteur Senegal, in the first week of February, and a second training at the Roche Diagnostic Campus South Africa in the second week. Other training followed, along with the provision of start-up reagents and test kits to laboratories that participated in the training.
