Quotes
As countries in Africa confirm cases, the virus is no longer a threat to the continent, but a reality.
We are working with countries in the region to ensure that measures are taken to contain further spread of the virus.
It doesn't hurt, but we know we're carrying the virus. The isolation is pretty stressful. You think about your parents and it's hard. If we could, we would be at home with our own... I invite all Senegalese people to follow the recommendations given by health professionals so as not to needlessly expose their fellow citizens to this disaster.
The entire strategy has been implemented. All of the country's health structures have been mobilized. We don't have any serious cases yet, but we are expecting new cases in the coming days. Several people have been quarantined after their return from travel, we will know more about their fate in 14 days and their results could very well be positive.
