H3: Contact tracing - limited contact tracing; not done for all casesDetails
16 April 2020 The number of confirmed COVID-19 cases in the Central African Republic (CAR) increased sharply in the reporting period, jumping from 12 on 15 April to 64 on 30 April, with still no casualties reported. Imported cases, mostly from Cameroon, CAR’s main trading partner, make up 75% of the total (48 out of 64). The CAR authorities have therefore stepped up efforts to control the flow of travellers coming from Cameroon, increasing sanitary controls at the main border crossings and along the main road to the capital Bangui. On 27 April, the Interior and Transport Ministers issued a joint decree suspending traffic between four main Cameroon border crossing towns (Ngaoundaye, Garoua- a-Boulai, Gamboula and Yantchi) and Bangui for a duration of 1 month. Exceptions apply for commercial trucks, as well as official, and UN and humanitarian NGO vehicles. All active confirmed cases are currently located in the capital Bangui. However, with the current acceleration of both importation and local transmission, the risk that the epidemic will eventually reach the interior of the country is increasing. https://reliefweb.int/sites/reliefweb.int/files/resources/UNICEF%20Central%20African%20Republic%20Humanitarian%20Situation%20Report%20COVID-19%20No.%202%20-16-30%20April%202020.pdf 17 April 2020 The MINUSCA Rwanda Contingent has donated a COVID-19 screening device to the Central African Republic (CAR). The machine will accelerate testing of suspected cases of infection as the number of confirmed coronavirus cases in the country reached 94 over the past few days. https://www.africanews.com/2020/05/09/coronavirus-rwanda-donates-covid-19-testing-device-to-central-african-republic-car-by-maria-kabatanya// 23 April 2020 The World Bank approved a grant of $7.5 million from the International Development Association (IDA)* to help the Central African Republic respond to the threat posed by the Coronavirus outbreak and strengthen national systems for public health preparedness. The COVID-19 Preparedness and Response Project will provide immediate support to the Central African Republic to prevent the spread of COVID-19 through containment strategies and by strengthening the public health emergency response for a potential outbreak. The project will bring in essential medical supplies and drugs, testing kits, personal protective equipment for frontline health workers, and water and hygiene supplies for the population. https://www.worldbank.org/en/news/press-release/2020/04/23/the-central-african-republic-to-strengthen-preparedness-and-response-to-coronavirus
