Abstract

Background: Little is known regarding the observance of the non-pharmaceutical measures implemented to curtail COVID-19 transmission in Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA). Recent deployment of COVID-19 vaccines may lead to a neglect of these still needed non-pharmaceutical strategies. We investigated adherence to preventive measures during the initial six months of the COVID-19 outbreak in SSA. Methods: Between March and August 2020, online surveys were conducted in six SSA countries: Benin, Cameroon, Democratic Republic of Congo, Mozambique, Somalia and Uganda. A five-point individual adherence score was constituted by scoring respondents’ observance of the following: mask use, physical distancing, hand hygiene, coughing hygiene, and avoiding to touch one’s face.

Mean individual adherence score decreased from 3.80±1.37 during Period 1, to 3.57±1.43 during Period 2; p
