TextSentencer_T1 0-104 Sentence denotes Preparedness and vulnerability of African countries against importations of COVID-19: a modelling study.
TextSentencer_T2 105-116 Sentence denotes BACKGROUND:
TextSentencer_T3 117-210 Sentence denotes The novel coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) epidemic has spread from China to 25 countries.
TextSentencer_T4 211-301 Sentence denotes Local cycles of transmission have already occurred in 12 countries after case importation.
TextSentencer_T5 302-349 Sentence denotes In Africa, Egypt has so far confirmed one case.
TextSentencer_T6 350-446 Sentence denotes The management and control of COVID-19 importations heavily rely on a country's health capacity.
TextSentencer_T7 447-566 Sentence denotes Here we evaluate the preparedness and vulnerability of African countries against their risk of importation of COVID-19.
TextSentencer_T8 567-575 Sentence denotes METHODS:
TextSentencer_T9 576-747 Sentence denotes We used data on the volume of air travel departing from airports in the infected provinces in China and directed to Africa to estimate the risk of importation per country.
TextSentencer_T10 748-1003 Sentence denotes We determined the country's capacity to detect and respond to cases with two indicators: preparedness, using the WHO International Health Regulations Monitoring and Evaluation Framework; and vulnerability, using the Infectious Disease Vulnerability Index.
TextSentencer_T11 1004-1094 Sentence denotes Countries were clustered according to the Chinese regions contributing most to their risk.
TextSentencer_T12 1095-1104 Sentence denotes FINDINGS:
TextSentencer_T13 1105-1243 Sentence denotes Countries with the highest importation risk (ie, Egypt, Algeria, and South Africa) have moderate to high capacity to respond to outbreaks.
TextSentencer_T14 1244-1384 Sentence denotes Countries at moderate risk (ie, Nigeria, Ethiopia, Sudan, Angola, Tanzania, Ghana, and Kenya) have variable capacity and high vulnerability.
TextSentencer_T15 1385-1559 Sentence denotes We identified three clusters of countries that share the same exposure to the risk originating from the provinces of Guangdong, Fujian, and the city of Beijing, respectively.
TextSentencer_T16 1560-1575 Sentence denotes INTERPRETATION:
TextSentencer_T17 1576-1682 Sentence denotes Many countries in Africa are stepping up their preparedness to detect and cope with COVID-19 importations.
TextSentencer_T18 1683-1890 Sentence denotes Resources, intensified surveillance, and capacity building should be urgently prioritised in countries with moderate risk that might be ill-prepared to detect imported cases and to limit onward transmission.
TextSentencer_T19 1891-1998 Sentence denotes FUNDING: EU Framework Programme for Research and Innovation Horizon 2020, Agence Nationale de la Recherche.
