Response to Covid-19 in Africa

The impact of Covid-19 in Africa is a ticking bomb on which the European Union (EDCTP) intervenes by supporting research projects. In response to this, a consortium of African and European universities and research institutes developed the ITAIL-COVID-19 project, aimed at implementation of novel and integrated laboratory testing approaches as a strategy against the spread of SARS-COV-2 in the Republic of Congo.
