论文摘要
由于SARS-COV-2病毒的出现和传播,技术的使用无处不在,以应对持续的公共卫生危机。非洲国家已经大量使用了技术来传播信息,应对COVID-19的传播以及开发尖端技术,以帮助患者的诊断,治疗和管理。由于其独特的挑战和机遇,与世界其他领域相比,这些努力的性质和结果有时在非洲有所不同。几个国家已经开发了创新的技术驱动解决方案,以迎合各种各样的人群,并获得了不同的技术访问。许多努力也通过灵活的解决问题,本地技术企业家精神和迅速采用尖端技术的方法来指定。
The use of technology has been ubiquitous in efforts to combat the ongoing public health crisis due to emergence and spread of the SARS-CoV-2 virus. African countries have made tremendous use of technology to disseminate information, counter the spread of COVID-19, and develop cutting-edge techniques to help with diagnosis, treatment and management of patients. The nature and outcomes of these efforts sometimes differ in Africa compared to other areas of the world due to its unique challenges and opportunities. Several countries have developed innovative technology-driven solutions to cater to a diverse population with varying access to technology. Much of the efforts are also earmarked by a flexible approach to problem solving, local tech entrepreneurship, and swift adoption of cutting-edge technology.
