Abstract
The first cases of the novel coronavirus disease (COVID-19), previously known as 2019-nCoV, were reported in late December 2019 in Wuhan, China (Wu, Zhao, Yu B, et al 2020). The virus then spread to Malaysia and Thailand and eventually to the Americas, Europe, Australia and Africa. On the 11thof March 2020 the World Health Organisation (WHO) declared the COVID-19 a global pandemic. This concept paper explores the potential impact of COVID-19 on poverty stricken and conflict-ridden communities in Sub-Sahara Africa. In doing so, the paper also explored the implications for public health professionals working with these communities, including recommendation for future policy development.
新型冠状病毒病(COVID-19)，以前称为2019- ncov，于2019年12月下旬在中国武汉报告了第一例病例(Wu, Zhao, Yu B, et al . 2020)。病毒随后传播到马来西亚和泰国，最终传播到美洲、欧洲、澳大利亚和非洲。2020年3月11日，世界卫生组织(世卫组织)宣布COVID-19为全球大流行。本概念文件探讨了2019冠状病毒病对撒哈拉以南非洲贫困和冲突社区的潜在影响。在此过程中，该论文还探讨了对与这些社区合作的公共卫生专业人员的影响，包括对未来政策制定的建议。
