This USAID support to Unicef \u200b\u200bshould be added as a complement to the donations made by the Covax system, underlines the APA recalling that this support comes at a time when Senegal is experiencing, since the end of May 2021. , a new upsurge in Covid-19 cases. \n\n    \n  \n\n\n  \n    \n      \nThanks to USAID support, Unicef \u200b\u200bwill be able to continue acquiring essential equipment for transporting vaccines, including cold boxes, ice bins and vaccine carriers, the note continued. It will also be able to strengthen communication in the field of public health through the general public media and social networks. These funds will help the government and partners fight disinformation and boost efforts to limit the spread of Covid-19. \n\n    \n  \n\n\n  \n    \n      \nDuring the month of July 2021, the United States provided more than 300,000 single doses of Johnson &amp; Johnson vaccines to Senegal through Covax, in coordination with the African Union, finally recalls the APA. Senegal has registered 63,520 cases of Covid-19 to date, including 1,385 deaths.\n\n    \n  \n\n\n  \n    \n      \nHealth authorities alerted at the end of the week to the preponderance of cases caused by the new Delta variant.
