Morty pointed out that the decrease in the number of new confirmed cases this week was due to the sharp decrease in the number of new cases in South Africa, and this was largely due to the disturbance of the normal case tracking and testing work in South Africa. “Don’t have any illusions, the third wave of the epidemic in Africa is far from over,” she warned that many countries still face the risk of an outbreak, and this week’s Gurban celebrations may also lead to a significant increase in the number of confirmed cases.

In addition, the new crown vaccination rate on the African continent is still at a low level. Only more than 20 million people are fully vaccinated, accounting for 1.5% of the total population.
