Prevention efforts

On 14 March, South Sudan suspended flights to countries affected by coronavirus.[4] On 20 March, classes in all schools and universities were suspended until 19 April, and Vice President Hussein Abdelbagi ordered the suspension of sporting, social, political, and religious gatherings for 6 weeks.[5] This was followed on 25 March by a nighttime curfew from 8 p.m. to 6 a.m.[6][7] On 27 March, around 500 people in quarantine from Sudan escaped in Renk, leading to northern Upper Nile State being placed under lockdown for 14 days.[8] From 25 March, after the coronavirus reached Mali, to 5 April 2020, South Sudan was the largest country by area without any confirmed cases of COVID-19.

South Sudan has a population of 14 million people but only 4 ventilators.[6]

  • On 5 April, the first case of COVID-19 in the country was confirmed in a 29-year-old patient, a United Nations worker who arrived on 28 February from the Netherlands[6] via Ethiopia.[9] South Sudan thus became the 51st African country (out of 54) to confirm a case.[6] The patient was quarantined at a UN facility and contact tracing efforts were undertaken.
  • The second case of COVID-19 was confirmed on 7 April; the patient was another female United Nations worker, aged 53, who arrived from Nairobi on 23 March and self-quarantined.[10] The third case on 9 April was also a female United Nations worker who had been in contact with the first patient.[11]
  • On 9 April, the Ministry of General Education announced it was preparing a distance learning program for primary and secondary school students via radio and television.[12] On 13 April, South Sudan suspended flights and public transportation between the states and between Juba and the states.[13]

  • A total of 35 patients tested positive in April. All 35 were active cases at the end of the month.[16]
  • Although cases were still increasing, South Sudan began the process of reopening on 7 May. The curfew was decreased to 10 p.m. to 6 a.m., boda bodas were allowed to have one passenger and rickshaws two passengers, if both the driver and the passengers wore face masks, and shops were allowed to reopen with a maximum of five occupants at a time.[17] On 12 May, airports were reopened for local, regional, and international flights.[18]

  • The number of recovered patients stood at 1205 in July,[29] 1438 in September,[31] and 3131 in December,[34] leaving 1101 active cases at the end of July,[29] 1190 at the end of August,[30] 1217 at the end of September,[31] 1557 at the end of October,[32] 94 at the end of November,[33] and 364 at the end of December.[34]

January to December 2021

  • Vaccination started on 6 April, initially with 132,000 doses of AstraZeneca's Covishield vaccine provided through the COVAX pillar.[35] After a slow roll-out, South Sudan decided to return 72,000 doses to COVAX and aim to administer the remaining 60,000 doses before their expiry date.
  • Health ministry officials announced on 19 April that 60,000 doses of AstraZeneca's vaccine donated by the African Union and MTN Group would be destroyed because of their short expiry date.[36]

  • Modeling carried out by the WHO’s Regional Office for Africa suggests that due to under-reporting, the true cumulative number of infections by the end of 2021 was around 4.9 million while the true number of COVID-19 deaths was around 1750.[38]
