think they’re masking up and doing contract tracing...?

I think much of Africa has less contact with China, the origin of the virus, and as a continent has fewer people per square mile than Asia, Europe, or North America. So social distancing is easier and there are fewer opportunities for infection in the first place.

‘I think much of Africa has less contact with China, the origin of the virus’

but northwest Africa, (Morocco, Algeria, Tunisia and Mauritania, among others) have extensive contact with southern reaches of Europe (Spain, France, and Italy...) and supposedly it is the European version of this virus that’s laying everybody low...

Nope. Lots of contact with China.

Next guess.

as a continent has fewer people per square mile than Asia, Europe, or North America.

Nope, wrong again. Asia is 246.11 psm, Europe is 187.84 psm, Africa is 87.15 psm, North and South America are 57.2 psm and Australia is 8.37. So if you guess was correct then should have very few of the Kung Flu cases. It doesn't.

Next guess.

So social distancing is easier and there are fewer opportunities for infection in the first place.

And once again you are so wrong it is kind of funny.

With the lack of private transportation over there there is almost no social distancing at all.

Your score is zero and you will receive the a box of off brand macaroni as your consolation prize.
