COVID-19
How the pandemic is impacting China-Africa ties
Early on in the COVID-19 outbreak, China moved quickly to establish itself as a key player helping African governments to mitigate the spread of the virus. China was among the only countries to provide Africa with supplies of badly-needed protective equipment and later vaccines.

CAP provides daily coverage of China’s engagement in Africa related to COVID-19. We examine the health, economic and political impact of the pandemic.
