Abstract

The global COVID-19 pandemic caused by SARS CoV-2 is causing both mortality/morbidity and collateral social and economic damage related to public panic and aggressive public policy measures to contain the disease worldwide.(1) The epidemic appears to have taken hold much more slowly in sub-Saharan Africa than most of the world.(2) Antibody testing to evaluate the population proportion previously infected with SARS CoV-2 has the potential to guide public policy, but has not been reported so far for sub-Saharan Africa.
