    • COVID-19: delay, mitigate, and communicate Published Online March 13, 2020 https://doi.org/10.1016/S2213-2600(20)30128-4 On March 11, 2020, WHO declared COVID-19 a pandemicand has called for governments to take “urgent and aggressive action” to change the course of the outbreak. As of March 12, 2020, the USA has suspended all travel from 26 European countries, and Italy is the latest country to enforce widespread lockdown measures to curb the spread of the virus. Robust plans and policies to avoid the disease trajectories seen in the worst-hit countries are urgentlyneeded. These responses must be proportionate to each country’s situation and communicated in a clear and balanced way to avoid spreading fear and panic.

    • Preparing African anticancer centres in the COVID-19 outbreak Amine Souadka,Amine Benkabbou,Brahim Al Ahmadi,Saber Boutayeb,Mohammed,Anass Majbar Published:April 03, 2020DOI:https://doi.org/10.1016/S1470-2045(20)30216-3 We congratulate Wenhua Liang and colleagues for their Comment laying out the strategic policies against cancer during the COVID-19 outbreak.1 The disease is now spreading rapidly to and within Africa. Like other countries, Morocco had the opportunity to analyse early COVID-19 data and acknowledge that individual-scale policies such as isolation would not stop the pandemic. Morocco adopted large-scale drastic measures early, including constraining mobility with a mandatory restrictive housing and curfew, despite the low number of cases (starting from 60 cases) compared with Europe. We expect that COVID-19 will have a major impact on African countries, with the risk of a rapid health-care system shutdown, due to a pre-existing shortage in material (eg, intensive-care unit beds or protective equipment) and human resources.
