| dc.description.abstract | Like many countries across the world, Senegal is
facing a second wave of the COVID-19 pandemic
with an increase in hospital admissions and deaths,
putting pressure on an already overstretched health
workforce. This situation requires new and
innovative measures to reverse the trend and avoid
overwhelming the health system. Community Case
Management is a proven strategy in healthcare
that could be a powerful tool in preventing severe
cases and reducing deaths related to COVID-19. This
proposed strategy is based on early detection of
cases and home-based management by community
health workers. | en_US |
