Abstract

The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) outbreak which started in the Hubei province of China in 2019, has now spread to all continents, affecting 203 countries by May 2020. Successful efforts in containing the COVID-19 virus in Asia resulted in WHO declaring Europe as the epicenter of the disease on March 13. Whether warmer temperatures will slow the spread of the COVID-19 virus, severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), has been a point of much speculation and have a great impact on the health system and people in West Africa.
