WHAT WE ARE INTERESTED IN
Did you know, in 2020, the only 12 out of the 64 countries worldwide with public #debt levels
over 60% in 2019 that @IMFNews classified as “high risk of” or already “debt distressed” were #African? Why?
This & more in our webinar this Tues! Join us!

So often when we hear a country is "#debt distressed" we don't question what that really means. Fortunately, some experts do, and will be decoding (and critiquing) this for us on Tues 9th March. Join us for an incredibly important discussion. #africaunconstrained https://twitter.com/DevReimagined/status/1368229222011924481

An opportunity to take a moment and appreciate how Africa didn't turn out to be the catastrophe that was expected...🙏🏾🙏🏾 https://twitter.com/eolander/status/1367702071948939265
isso aqui é muito interessante. de um lado, o porquê de a pandemia não ter fugido do controle no continente africano. de outro, a estratégia chinesa para a região em matéria de combate à Covid-19 - o que foi feito e o que ainda pode ser feito. https://twitter.com/DevReimagined/status/1367899240651845636
It's been 1 year since the 1st #COVID19 case was detected on the #African continent. What was the response in African countries & by #Africa's development partners, including #China? Read our #yearinreview, plus lessons for the future on @eolander.

"Europe is trying to vaccinate 80%. The US is trying to vaccinate everyone. They will vaccinate, slap on travel restrictions, and then Africa will become the continent of COVID". John Nkengasong. https://twitter.com/LopesInsights/status/1367501664765284359
48 African countries ordered the COVID vaccine. Less than 2% of the orders have been delivered. There are 💉 for about 0.6% of Africans. Given this scarcity, who will be vaccinated first and what will the regional & global health, social & economic outcomes be? @DevReimagined https://twitter.com/alimousultan/status/1367410552935440385
Informative data and analytics at @DevReimagined. Shows that African countries have received less than 2% of COVID-19 vaccines they’ve ordered.
Good news is that at least 48 African countries have placed orders https://developmentreimagined.com/2021/03/03/lessthan2ofvaccinesordered/
An excellent (and data filled) overview of the current vaccine situation in Africa @DevReimagined https://developmentreimagined.com/2021/03/03/lessthan2ofvaccinesordered/#

Some hard COVID-19 vaccine facts when it comes to Africa.
For every 100 orders African countries have placed for vaccines they have received just 1.5! (Enough for less than 1% of the continent’s population!!) for more facts follow the thread and @DevReimagined https://twitter.com/DevReimagined/status/1367141589915557894
Rich countries will vaccinate everyone, impose travel restrictions, and then Africa becomes "the continent of Covid", warns Africa CDC boss @JNkengasong, in an interview - unless Africa gets access to a lot more vaccines, fast.
