THE BAD AND GOOD OF COVID-19 PANDEMIC: A ZAMBIAN PERSPECTIVE

The COVID-19 pandemic is now considered the worst human disaster of the 21st century. Correctly so because it spread
across the entire globe in less than 2 months, and within two years of its appearance as a human disease virus infected
over 600 million people, and accounted for over 6million deaths. A case fatality of about 1% at this global scale resulted
in such mortality, unimaginable to our modern society. In Zambia, the two-year window scathed us with greater than
333 thousand confirmed cases and over 4 thousand deaths: even when absolute numbers were lower, the case fatality
was 1.2% and is consistent with the global trend.
