Is Covid-19 still a serious threat for Africa?

Across the continent, Covid-19 cases rose by 36% on average last week. Those figures might have sounded scary a couple of years ago. But the World Health Organization expects Covid related deaths to drop by 94% this year. Many countries have dropped restrictions related to the pandemic.

And when might Botswana be able to drop it’s last restrictions? #AfricaDaily
