SARS-CoV-2 infection in Africa: A systematic review and meta-analysis of standardised seroprevalence studies, from January 2020 to December 2021

https://www.medrxiv.org/conten....t/10.1101/2022.02.14

We report high seroprevalence in Africa,

suggesting greater population exposure to SARS-CoV-2 and protection against COVID-19 disease than indicated by surveillance data

As seroprevalence was heterogeneous, targeted PHSM and vaccination strategies need to be tailored to local epidemiological situations.

South Africa has had waves

Are African deaths simply unrecorded?

Dr. Thierno Baldé, W.H.O.’s Covid emergency response in Africa

We have not seen massive burials in Africa.

If that had happened, we’d have seen it

Dr. Abdhalah Ziraba, epidemiologist, African Population and Health Research Center in Nairobi, Kenya

A death in Africa never goes unrecorded, as much as we are poor at record-keeping

There is a funeral, an announcement:

A burial is never done within a week because it is a big event.

For someone sitting in New York hypothesizing that they were unrecorded — well, we may not have the accurate numbers,

but the perception is palpable.

In the media, in your social circle, you know if there are deaths

Dr. Demby, Sierra Leone health minister

We haven’t had overflowing hospitals.
We haven’t
There is no evidence that excess deaths are occurring
