| COVID-19 pandemic in Mali | |
|---|---|
| Disease | COVID-19 |
| Virus strain | SARS-CoV-2 |
| Location | Mali |
| First outbreak | Wuhan, China |
| Index case | Bamako, Kayes |
| Arrival date | 25 March 2020 (4 years, 8 months, 2 weeks and 6 days) |
| Confirmed cases | 33,180[1] (updated 15 December 2024) |
Deaths | 743[1] (updated 15 December 2024) |
The COVID-19 pandemic in Mali is part of the ongoing worldwide pandemic of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). The virus was confirmed to have reached Mali in March 2020.
Background
[edit]On 12 January 2020, the World Health Organization (WHO) confirmed that a novel coronavirus was the cause of a respiratory illness in a cluster of people in Wuhan City, Hubei Province, China, which was reported to the WHO on 31 December 2019.[2][3]
The case fatality ratio for COVID-19 has been much lower than SARS of 2003,[4][5] but the transmission has been significantly greater, with a significant total death toll.[6][4] Model-based simulations for Mali suggest that the 95% confidence interval for the time-varying reproduction number R t has been stable below 1.0 since December 2020.[7]
