Background [ edit ]
On 12 January 2020, the World Health Organization (WHO) confirmed that a novel coronavirus was the cause of a respiratory illness in a cluster of people in Wuhan City, Hubei Province, China, which was reported to the WHO on 31 December 2019.[2] [3]
The case fatality ratio for COVID-19 has been much lower than SARS of 2003 ,[4] [5] but the transmission has been significantly greater, with a significant total death toll.[6] [4] Model-based simulations for Mauritania indicate that the 95% confidence interval for the time-varying reproduction number R t has been lower than 1.0 since December 2020.[7]
