Abstract
The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has spread to all 55 countries in Africa. The prevalence is highly heterogeneous, and the majority of cases are asymptomatic. Several factors are thought to explain heterogeneity of COVID-19 in Africa, including the level of containment measures, demographic aspects, climate and environmental factors, host genetics and immune factors. Here, we discuss the prevalence of COVID-19 in Africa, the status of serological studies, COVID-19 and comorbidities, as well as the spread of SARS-CoV-2 variants and the status of vaccine roll-outs in Africa.

코로나바이러스 질병 2019(COVID-19) 대유행이 아프리카의 55개국 전체로 퍼졌습니다. 유병률은 매우 이질적이며 대부분의 경우는 무증상입니다. 격리 조치 수준, 인구 통계학적 측면, 기후 및 환경 요인, 숙주 유전 및 면역 요인을 포함하여 아프리카에서 COVID-19의 이질성을 설명하는 몇 가지 요인이 생각됩니다. 여기에서 우리는 아프리카에서 COVID-19의 유행, 혈청학적 연구의 상태, COVID-19 및 동반질환, SARS-CoV-2 변이체의 확산 및 아프리카에서의 백신 출시 상태에 대해 논의합니다.
