Should Africans prepare for more measures against the pandemic?
As the numbers of covid19 cases grow in Africa, governments will take more measures. The rapidly spreading virus must be stopped. Bans on foreign travel and restrictions in movement are already in place in many countries. Furthermore, citizens may be asked to stay in their homes and avoid physical contact with others. Even walking in the park you are asked to keep a distance of two metres from others.
Can technology help?
Certainly, technology offers an escape from the social isolation enforced to contain the pandemic. First of all, you can use web banking to pay utilities and for other transactions. Furthermore, you can pay online for the delivery of food, medications, and groceries. While for entertainment you can watch films, documentaries, comedies.
