La présente Stratégie pour des infrastructures sanitaires de qualité en Afrique2021-2030 (SISQA) répond à une demande des gouverneurs de la Banque africaine de développement (la BAD ou la Banque) invitant l’institution à définir son rôle dans la lutte contre les déficits d’infrastructu...res sanitaires en Afrique, en s’appuyant sur son expertise en matière de développement des infrastructures. Cette demande reconnaît que la santé joue un caractère central dans l’amélioration de la qualité de vie des Africains et l’opportunité de réaliser leur potentiel. Elle répond également à la demande croissante des pays membres régionaux (PMR), qui souhaitent que la Banque les aide à combler les lacunes en matière d’infrastructures sanitaires nationales, que la crise de la COVID-19 et d’autres crises sanitaires ont mises en évidence.

WHO published guidance for clinicians and health care decision-makers on the use of corticosteroids in patients with COVID-19.
We recommend systemic corticosteroids for the treatment of patients with severe and critical COVID-19. We suggest not to use corticosteroids in the treatment of patients ...with non-severe COVID-19 as the treatment brought no benefits, and could even prove harmful. Treatment should be under supervision of a clinician.
Corticosteroids are listed in the WHO model list of essential medicines, readily available globally at a low cost. WHO encourages countries to maintain sufficient stocks of corticosteroids to treat COVID-19 and the other disease for which they are effective, while not maintaining excessive stocks which could deny other countries access.
