COVID-19 is taking its toll on Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA).
To date, there have been 1.2 million infections and about
30,000 deaths on the continent. The pandemic has widely
repressed mobility, disrupted economic production,
decreased investment and remittance flows, created
massive unemployment and pushed more people into
poverty. Meanwhile, many governments increased
spending in response to the health and economic crises
but, given pre-existing vulnerabilities and limited fiscal
space, compounded by an annual COVID-19 financing
gap of $100 billion, policy-makers have been grappling
with not only mobilising funds but also allocating limited
resources to measures that will create the most impact.
Utilising the ODI COVID-19 tracker, this note explores the
evolution of SSA policy responses from the onset of the
pandemic to the present, as well as recovery issues for
policy-makers and stakeholders moving forward. |
