The Angolan government is relying on partners at home and abroad to support its Covid-19 response. The southwest African country was quick to develop and mobilize a plan, leading to a relatively low caseload. As of June 24, the country has logged only 189 cases and 10 deaths, representing some of the lowest numbers on the African continent. In order to sustain this momentum, Angola will require continued support from international partners including measures to strengthen the country’s long-neglected health and social sectors.
