The number of coronavirus cases in Africa has reached 102 confirmed with one death, said the African Unions Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (Africa CDC).
This came in an update Africa CDC head Dr. John Nkengasong gave to reporters at the African Union headquarters on Tuesday.
COVID-19 hit a number of northern, western and southern African countries since a first case was confirmed in Egypt on Feb. 14.
As of today, there are about 102 cases in 10 African countries, with one death, Nkengasong said, listing the affected countries as Algeria, Burkina Faso, Cameroon, Egypt, Morocco, Nigeria, Senegal, South Africa, Togo and Tunisia.
Describing some of the activities of Africa CDC, Nkengasong said: Africa CDC has distributed testing kits capable of testing over 10,000 people, purchasing more emergency medical items including test kits, thermal scanners and other critical medical supplies and stockpiling them to meet the requests from member states.

Comment: Well, there is a death in Africa now, so Im guess the WHO will declare a pandemic tomorrow.
No official pandemic until those bonds mature.
Early April, right?
Speculation was once Chinese workers returned to Africa, they’d start getting hit.
